On May 3, Huai'an university student Xiao Chen quarreled with his girlfriend. He was very emotional. His fingers were stiff and he fainted.

Who do you want most at the moment?
After a quarrel between a young man and his girlfriend in Huai'an, he was in a bad mood for a long time. The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. As a result, his fingers became "chicken feet." the doctor said that he was so angry that he was poisoned.
Xu Jing, chief physician of Respiratory Medicine Department of the first people's Hospital of Huai'an City, told reporters that on the evening of May 3, when she was on the night shift, a young college student patient, Xiao Chen, was sent to the emergency room. It is understood that Xiao Chen had a quarrel with his girlfriend because of some trifles before, and he was very emotional and couldn't calm down for a long time. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen's fingers suddenly become stiff like chicken feet. He is extremely stiff and can't speak, which frightens people.
Xu Jing, chief physician of respiratory medicine, said: 'his limbs are very stiff and can't be broken off. Then he asked if he found any pain during the whole course of the disease. He totally denied it. Before, there was a very important inducement, that is, gasping after an argument with my girlfriend. '
Doctors found that Xiao Chen was suffering from a disease called hyperventilation syndrome. The root cause is emotional excitement, breathing too fast, which leads to the lack of carbon dioxide in the body, causing 'respiratory alkalosis'.
Xu Jing, chief physician of respiratory medicine, said: 'deep breathing can cause carbon dioxide hyperventilation, which leads to excessive discharge of carbon dioxide from the body, resulting in insufficient carbon dioxide in the body. This is what we call respiratory alkalosis clinically. His limbs are very stiff and shaking, which is similar to the symptoms of epilepsy, but he is mentally good. '
After timely treatment, the patient's condition gradually improved, no serious problem.
