"Seven Types of Self-protection"

With the introduction of cold air, respiratory diseases have also increased. At present, outpatient respiratory diseases in hospitals are on the increase compared with the same period in previous years. Experts suggest that you can take appropriate cold prevention drugs, such as Radix isatidis, or drink plenty of hot water, you can also do Gua Sha, cupping, and especially use Chinese medicine to soak your feet and other measures to prevent colds.

In addition, when the strong wind strikes, you can refer to the following "self-protection seven patterns" to survive the winter safely:

The first type: add a mask to keep warm and prevent diseases

The nose and mouth are the gateway to the respiratory tract. Masks are indispensable cold protection tools, which can effectively prevent dust and ups and downs from attacking the skin, and can prevent pain from being blown by the harsh cold wind.

The second type: wash your face with warm water, drink plenty of hot water

The face wash water temperature is controlled at 20-37℃, and skin care products with better moisturizing effect should be selected.

Drink plenty of hot water. The amount of water you drink every day varies from person to person, but "drink more hot water" is by no means perfunctory when the wind is cooling down.

Type 3: Wear knee pads to protect joints

Many people experience joint pain during windy weather. Especially when riding a bicycle, you might as well wear knee pads and wrist braces to protect your joints.

Fourth type: open the window to ventilate to adjust the temperature difference

Excessive temperature difference between indoor and outdoor can also lead to high incidence of diseases. Depending on the outside air, you can open the window twice a day for about 30 minutes.

Type 5: Foreign objects enter the eyes, do not rub your eyes

Windy weather can easily cause foreign objects to enter the eyes. It is recommended to blink more to promote the secretion of tears and discharge them. Avoid rubbing hard to cause foreign bodies to scratch the cornea or cause foreign bodies to embed in the cornea and cause infection and inflammation.

Type 6: Cardiovascular disease, go out as little as possible

The sudden drop in temperature can easily induce diseases such as stroke, cerebral infarction, and myocardial infarction. In addition to the necessary warmth for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular patients, try not to go out on windy days. If you have to go out, it is best to take some quick-acting Jiuxin pills, nitroglycerin and other medicines when you go out.

Seventh formula: Dress appropriately to enhance immunity

Under the premise of ensuring that the body is not cold, it is not advisable to cover it too tightly, as sweating will reduce immunity.
