Need to renew the air conditioner in the daytime steaming and night?Beware of the "low temperature killer" in the high temperature weather!

This summer, high -temperature heat waves continued to make power. Are you increasingly inseparable from the coolness brought by the air conditioner? While enjoying the coolness, don't ignore the hidden worry behind the use of air conditioners. If you have been in the air -conditioned environment for a long time, dizziness, headache, loss of appetite, upper respiratory tract infection, joint pain and other symptoms, then you may have the so -called "air conditioning disease". Let's take a look at the "low temperature killer" in high temperature weather.

Temptation of "air conditioning disease"

Not necessarily "cold stimulation"

Many people are used to "air -conditioning diseases" that are used to "air conditioning diseases" related to air conditioning or air conditioning. The main symptoms of air -conditioning diseases are different due to different adaptability. Director Dai Qibin, Director of the Chief Push Department of Nanjing Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital, said that the three types of people who are most likely to occur in summer are the elderly, children and women in pregnancy. The respiratory tract, joint muscles, and nervous system are the most vulnerable.

If the respiratory tract can cause cough, sneezing, runny nose and other symptoms like colds. In severe cases, bacterial infections can cause lower respiratory diseases such as pneumonia. Gastrointestinal tract can be manifested as anorexia, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting. Cold muscle joints can cause symptoms such as waist, back, joint pain, joint stiffness, unfavorable curvature, and muscle soreness. Facial neuritis and local peripheral neuritis are also common symptoms of "air conditioning disease", and severe ones can also cause crooked mouth and eyes. Women may cause diseases such as irregular menstruation and dysmenorrhea.

Many people think that cold is the main cause of "air conditioning disease", but this is only one of the reasons. In addition to cold stimulation, dryness and microorganisms are also two other reasons for inducing "air conditioning diseases".

Director Yan Yanfeng of the Department of Pulmonary Diseases of the hospital said that in order to allow the air -conditioned room to ensure the effect of refrigeration, many readers generally have strong confinement and poor air liquidity. The air duct and hair dryer of the air -conditioning machine are also suitable for germs and viruses to survive and reproduce. Bacteria and viruses are blown out by air conditioners, which can easily induce respiratory diseases. Therefore, it is recommended that the air -conditioned room should always keep ventilation. Do not always pull the curtains. The moderate amount of the sun is used for anti -virus.

Symptom 1 This kind of corner is not a stroke, it is the facial paralysis blowing from the air conditioner

High temperature continued to attack, and some "air -conditioning renewal clan" got up in the morning to find "skewed mouth and eyes", and the expression on the face became very stiff ... Every summer, there are not a few people who blow air conditioning facial paralysis.

Jiangsu Centers for Disease Control recently in official micro -science, "facial paralysis" is also known as facial neuritis, commonly known as facial nerve paralysis (that is, facial neuroplasma), "crooked mouth" and "hanging line wind". A disease. The causes we usually hear are often when we sleep at night and do not turn off the windows, or are blown by the air conditioner, which will cause this disease.

Facial palsy can be divided into two types: central facial facial paralysis and peripheral facial paralysis. The fiber above the facial nerve nucleus is called the central part of the facial nerve, and the facial nerve nucleus and the fiber below are called the peripheral part of the facial nerve.

Central facial paralysis is the damage to the nerve fiber above the facial nerve nucleus, causing the facial muscle paralysis under the fracture of the side of the lesion. The common manifestations are skewed corners, wind leakage, and lighter nasal and lip sulcus.

Peripheral facial paralysis is the damage to the facial nerve nucleus or under the nucleus, which causes all facial muscle paralysis of the upper and lower parts of the lesion. The degree is relatively severe and the recovery speed is slow.

Why does the air conditioner cause facial paralysis? This is because the weather is hot in summer. After blowing the air conditioner, the human face will increase the tension of the muscles due to cold, especially when the air conditioner is blowing when I fall asleep, it will be easy to get cold. These wind and cold can act on the face, increase muscle tension, and the space between muscle fibers will become narrow. Its compression of neuropathy will increase, leading to blood circulation disorders, affecting non -specific inflammation of the facial nerve, and can cause facial paralysis.

When you have facial paralysis symptoms, you need to go to the hospital immediately. Facial paralysis is divided into acute period, recovery period, and sequelae period. Generally from the day of the onset to the seventh day to the acute period, the recovery period is generally ranging from 1-3 months. The next is the sequelae period. Therefore, it should be found that facial paralysis should be found early.

If facial paralysis caused by air conditioning, you can use blood circulation or nutritional nerve drugs in the early stage; if the effect is not good, you can treat acupuncture; if there is no effect, you can choose surgical treatment.

Symptom 2 Blow in the air conditioner in the office, the shoulder hurts to lift it up

Perioditis is often caused by cold, trauma, strain, or old manial decline. Shoulder exposure, feeling wind cold, causing pain, so tradition is called leaky shoulder wind. In summer, the air conditioning is frequently used, the temperature decreases at night, and the shoulder is easily attacked by cold, which makes the local blood of the shoulder joints poor, resulting in acute increase in chronic strain, which causes severe pain. Individual patients cannot fall asleep at night.

Due to the particularity of work, some people are also easily attacked by air -conditioning cold winds. For example, taxi drivers are often located at the air outlet. After a summer, there are more problems with the shoulders; there are some white -collar workers in the office, the air conditioning temperature is low, and the seat below the air outlet has also become a "hardest hit area."

In addition, it is necessary to remind that in the air -conditioned room, the knee joint of the dew is often the first. Therefore, while active treatment, we must also pay attention to knee warmth. It is generally recommended that you do not directly expose the knee joint in the air -conditioned environment to avoid air -conditioning wind and electric fan wind directly to the knee joint. Symptom 3 in the air -conditioned room for a long time, beware of the "cold"

The gastrointestinal "cold" is caused by the poor gastrointestinal function of the patient, and then infected by viruses such as adenovirus, cup -like virus, and influenza virus. If you live and work in an air -conditioned room for a long time, once the above diseases occur, the possibility of "cold" gastrointestinal and intestines often needs to be considered.

The navel is the weakest part of the human body to the outside world. It is recommended that the air -conditioning outlet should not be facing the abdomen. When sleeping at night, the abdomen should be covered with a layer of blanket to avoid cold. People who are prone to diarrhea should put long -sleeved clothes in a low temperature room with low temperature. Summer foods should be dominated by appetizers and light, such as winter melon, lily, mung bean soup, lotus seed porridge, etc., and reasonably supplement fruits and vitamins according to personal constitution, eat less cold drinks, and drink less ice water.

Three acupoints can fight "air conditioning disease"

Dai Qibin, director of the Chief Push Department of Nanjing Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital, said that Sanfu Tian is a good time for traditional Chinese medicine "winter diseases and summer treatment", and it is also targeted for "air -conditioning disease" Chinese medicine. Acupoint massage of Chinese medicine has a good effect on alleviating the symptoms of "air conditioning disease". Here are three common points for everyone.

● Fengchi acupoint: Fengchi acupoint has the effects of relieving wind and relieving liver yang, and Shujin Tongli. It is located on both sides of the neck nest under the back of the head. It is about two thumbs from the neck nest to the outside. It is located on the back neck, under the posterior tape, and the two large tendons in the outer edge of the nest, which is probably flat with the earlobe. You can use your index finger and middle finger to rub the wind pond acupoints to feel slightly sour, which has the functions of clearing the leader and Tongyang scattered cold.

● Dingchong point: If "air conditioning disease" is accompanied by cough, you can press the jeet. This acupoint is located on the back, and the seventh cervical spine spines are opened by 0.5 inches. It has the effects of relieving cough and asthma, and propagating the lungs.

● Dazhui acupoint: If "air conditioning disease" is accompanied by symptoms such as nasal congestion, mild fever, and neck and shoulder soreness, you can press the Dazhui acupoint. This acupoint is located in the depression below the seventh cervical spine. "The meeting of Zhuyang" mainly has the effect of removing wind and Tongqi, qi and pain and relieving pain.

Pay attention to this "three no" when blowing air conditioners in summer

1. Don't worry. Many people returned home from the hot outdoor, and they had a lot of sweat on their bodies. As soon as they entered the house, they hurriedly opened the air conditioner. This was wrong. Because at this time, the pores of the human body are opened. Suddenly when it encounters cold air, it will cause the blood vessels to shrink rapidly, which will cause some cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, after entering the house, you must slowly, sweat, and then turn on the air conditioner.

2. Not greedy. Although human body temperature can be adjusted, there is also a limits of tolerance, and the body is cold and hot, and it is easy to get sick. Therefore, even if the temperature outside is high, do not adjust the air conditioner temperature too low. Generally, the more suitable temperature is 25-26 ° C. It is best not to exceed 8 ° C for indoor and outdoor temperature differences.

3. Do not blow directly. Some people like to stand under the air conditioner and look at it. As everyone knows, this damage to the body is very great. The wind of the air conditioner is relatively "hard". Blowing directly on the body will make people particularly easy to get cold, and it may also cause facial paralysis and symptoms of crooked mouth. When turning on the air conditioner, the cold air sinks down, so the wind is best blowing up to avoid the cold wind blowing straight.
