After the heavy snowfall, the baton of the season officially moved from autumn to winter, whether it is the cold wind in the north like pins and needles, or the damp cold in the south, which penetrates deep into the bones, all bring new tests to the organs of the whole body and usher in a period of high incidence of diseases.
Many people believe that the diseases that should be strictly prevented in winter and ranked first are cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, their pathological basis is atherosclerosis, and the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor in winter is large, and the cold air stimulation makes the heart and cerebrovascular load heavy, coupled with poor sleep and improper medication, it is easy to induce two fatal hidden dangers
One is a heart attack
Due to the cold weather, the human blood vessels constrict, blood pressure increases, and the burden on the heart increases, which can easily lead to myocardial infarction, in addition, people's diet and living Xi habits will also change in winter, such as eating more high-calorie food, sedentary lifestyle, etc., which also increases the risk of myocardial infarction.
If you have symptoms of myocardial infarction, such as chest pain, chest tightness, shortness of breath, etc., you should seek medical attention promptly. While waiting for the ambulance, the following measures can be taken: lie flat and rest, avoid activities;Oral aliser drugs such as nitroglycerin or fast-acting heart pills;Keep your emotions stable and don't get too nervous.
The second is stroke and cerebral thrombosis
In a cold environment, our peripheral blood vessels show significant constriction, which can lead to an increase in blood pressure, which can lead to cerebral thrombosis.
Stroke, cerebral thrombosis and myocardial infarction are very similar in that they are all caused by a large temperature difference that increases the workload of the heart, which increases the risk of cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral thrombotic attack. Recommendation: Pay attention to keeping warm and avoid over-constriction of blood vessels;Eat a light diet and eat plenty of fresh fruits to keep your mood stable.
However, there are many diseases that are much more annoying, difficult and common than cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and the top three are usually these diseases.
The "top three" diseases with a winter incidence are not myocardial infarction, not stroke, and are very common in life
1. Respiratory diseases
In winter, the weather is cold and the climate is dry, which will irritate the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract, cause damage to the respiratory tract, reduce the ability to defend itself, and thus breed bacteria and viruses, so winter is the season of high incidence of acute respiratory diseases such as colds, pneumonia, influenza, and asthma.
The most common respiratory illnesses include colds, bronchitis, asthma, and pneumonia, among others, and the symptoms of these diseases include coughing, difficulty breathing, wheezing, etc., but they vary in their methods and methods.
A cold is a respiratory infection caused by a virus that can be done by resting, drinking plenty of fluids, and taking anti-cold medications**, bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchial tubes caused by infection or allergies and requires the use of antibiotics or anti-allergy medications**.
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease that requires long-term use of anti-inflammatory medications and bronchodilators to control symptoms. Pneumonia is inflammation of the lungs caused by a bacterial infection that requires antibiotics**.
2. Disease
In winter, the climate is cold, dry and windy, the human capillaries constrict, blood flow slows down, metabolism slows down, and the secretion of sweat glands and sebaceous glands decreasesIn addition, the use of electric blankets, floor heating, hot air conditioning, etc., increases the evaporation of water
In winter, the bath water temperature is easy to be too high, which will remove the sebum and destroy the water lipid film barrier, which will cause dryness, itching, scaling, etc.
*There are many types of diseases, including infectious, inflammatory, neoplastic, and hereditary. Among them, infectious ** diseases are caused by microbial infections such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, etc., such as chickenpox, shingles, hand, foot and mouth disease, etc. Inflammatory** diseases are caused by factors such as allergies, immune system abnormalities, such as eczema, contact dermatitis, etc.
3. Fractures
In the cold winter, people often fall down because of icy roads, slippery snow and other reasons, which leads to accidental injuries such as fractures, which will not only bring a lot of pain and inconvenience to life, but also have a certain impact on people's psychology.
Fractures can cause great pain and inconvenience to the body, and the fracture site is often accompanied by severe pain, swelling, bruising, and other symptoms, which tend to last for weeks or even months.
In addition, patients with fractures usually need to undergo a long period of **and**, during which they need to go through multiple follow-up visits and examinations, which will have a great impact on the patient's daily life and work.
Therefore, in winter, people should pay special attention to their own safety, avoid falling due to slippery roads and other reasons, if there is an accidental injury such as a fracture, they should seek medical attention in time and receive professional **and**.
How to maintain health in winter?
1. In winter, the weather is cold and frozen, the grass and trees are withering, the insects are dormant, and the scene of depression and scattering is the season when all things in nature are closed.
2. The three parts of the head, back and feet are the most susceptible to the invasion of cold evil, and if you do not pay attention to it for a long time, it will cause damage to the body and cause a variety of diseases, so it is particularly important to keep warm in winter.
3. Diet, traditional Chinese medicine believes that spring nourishes the liver, summer nourishes the heart, autumn nourishes the lungs, winter nourishes the kidneys, and four seasons nourishes the spleen and stomachNourishing yin and nourishing the kidney in winter is an important method of health care, and attention should be paid to nourishing the kidney, nourishing the lungs and moistening dryness, and it is best to combine medicine and food with medicinal dietIn winter, people should eat more warm food and less cold food, and eat less cold, raw and cold food.
4. Winter exercise has a degree, "winter training three nine", is a positive way to keep warm and keep fit, winter exercise can be based on the size of each person's age, the strength of the physique, respectively, choose long-distance running, boxing, skating, skiing and other sports.
Through outdoor activities, the oxygen supply of the human body can be increased and the ability to resist disease can be improved, but winter exercise must pay attention to mastering a "degree", and the body's energy cannot be overdrawn.
