What should we pay attention to to prevent diseases in summer?

High temperature, high humidity and rainy weather are common in the six solar terms in summer. The summer-humidity air can easily take advantage of the weakness and invade the body, making people sick. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the prevention of temperature-related diseases and miscellaneous diseases in the six solar terms in spring. and treatment.

1. The febrile and miscellaneous diseases that are prone to occur during the six solar terms in summer are selected and introduced separately as follows.

(1) Febrile diseases that are prone to occur during the 6 solar terms in summer. The climate in the 6 solar terms in summer changes from warm to hot, and gradually develops into midsummer, hot and scorching hot. The six solar terms in summer are the seasons dominated by fire. The main diseases caused by seasonal febrile diseases include summer heat, damp heat, dysentery, cholera, Sha, summer fever in children, etc. These summer febrile diseases all have the same characteristics of fiery nature. Their onset usually manifests as strong fever, thirst, sweating, and obvious loss of body fluids and gas consumption. At the same time, it also has the characteristics of febrile disease, with acute onset, rapid spread, and easy epidemic, causing a wide range of people to fall ill.

Summer has six solar terms, and there is a lot of rain, which is mainly caused by heat and dampness. Diseases are often caused by the combination of heat and dampness. Such as damp-warmth, Sha Qi, cholera, etc. The two Qi of heat and dampness work together to cause disease, causing summer heat to hold dampness, yang to have yin, and heat and cold to mix. Dampness causes diseases, which usually manifests as sticky, turbid, lingering and difficult to treat. It also blocks the body's spleen yang, causing symptoms such as drowsiness and weakness in the limbs, loss of appetite, or leucorrhea in women.

(2) Miscellaneous diseases prone to occur during the 6 solar terms in summer. Miscellaneous diseases during the 6 solar terms in summer refer to various diseases except febrile diseases that occur in response to the climate characteristics of the 6 solar terms in summer. They are collectively referred to as Miscellaneous diseases caused by the six solar terms in summer.

Miscellaneous diseases caused by the six solar terms in summer are seasonal diseases with the highest incidence rate among the four seasons. Because some miscellaneous diseases can occur not only in summer, but more often in spring, autumn and winter. Then they were listed as spring, autumn and winter and described. Here we only describe the main seasonal diseases in summer. Such as: heat stroke, heat injury, summer heat, summer cough, summer fever, summer heat, mold and dampness, summer filth, diarrhea, summer wind, athlete's foot, febrile disease, lung abscess, summer boil, sweat spots, summer syncope, intestinal carbuncle, Poliomyelitis, aphthous ulcer, peptic ulcer, thrush, children's pruritus, vaginal itching, vulva, oral ulcers, frequent urination in children, sweating in children, vomiting in children, insect bite dermatitis, anorexia in children, malnutrition in children, Gonorrhea, abscess, jaundice, menstrual fever, constipation in the elderly, etc.

2． Prevention and treatment of temperature-related diseases during the six solar terms in summer. Preventive measures and treatment plans for common temperature-related diseases during the six solar terms in summer are introduced below.

(1) Summer fever. Summer fever is an acute febrile disease caused by experiencing summer heat evil. The onset of this disease is sudden, with symptoms of excessive Qi-heat such as strong fever, sweating, polydipsia, and rapid pulse at the beginning. The pathogenesis of the disease spreads rapidly, and it is most likely to cause body fluid loss and qi loss, and is often caused by closed orifices and wind. The onset is strictly seasonal. Summer is hot, and the heat is in season. If people feel the heat, they may develop strong fever, thirst, sweating and other symptoms. Heat evil is a disease that spreads rapidly and cannot be solved. It can cause wind in the camp and appear Epistaxis, macules, and even coma. Summer brings with it dampness, so it is often accompanied by chest pain and heaviness. In the later stages of the disease, the heat and pathogenic factors gradually recede, and the body fluid and qi have not recovered. Most of them show symptoms of deficiency of righteousness and evil, or deficiency of qi and yin, low fever, crawling fingers, or poor orifices, dull expression, and demented laughter. This disease is mainly seen in Japanese encephalitis, Leptospira and other acute infectious diseases in Western medicine, and heatstroke.

①Preventive measures a. During the 6 solar terms in summer, you should do a good job in environmental and personal hygiene, and pay attention to indoor air circulation.

b. Inject Japanese encephalitis virus and Leptospira vaccines on time.

c. Detect patients early and isolate and treat them promptly.

②Treatment plan a. Baihu Decoction: 36 grams of gypsum, 12 grams of anemarrhena, 9 grams of licorice, and 24 grams of japonica rice. Decoction in water and take frequently will stop the disease.

b. Wang's Qingshu Yiqi Decoction: 15 grams of American ginseng (50 grams of North Adenophora can be substituted), 15 grams of dendrobium, 10 grams of Ophiopogon japonicus, 15 grams of Coptis chinensis, 12 grams of lotus root, 12 grams of Anemarrhena, 3 grams of licorice, and 15 grams of glutinous rice. grams, 20 grams of watermelon Cuiyi.

c. Shengmai Powder: 15 grams of ginseng, 30 grams of Ophiopogon japonicus, and 15 grams of Wuwei.

d． Baihu plus Atractylodes Decoction: 30 grams of gypsum, 12 grams of Anemarrhena, 6 grams of licorice, 12 grams of glutinous rice, 15 grams of Atractylodes, decoct in water and take.

e. Angong Niuhuang Wan or Purple Snow Pill, decoct and take Qingying Decoction: 6 grams of rhinoceros horn (30 grams of buffalo horn can be used instead), 12 grams of red peony root, 18 grams of paeonol bark, and 24 grams of raw rehmannia glutinosa, decoction in water.

f. Sanjia Powder: 9 grams each of drunk ground turtle worm, drunk fried turtle shell, and soil fried pangolin, 6 grams zombie worm, 6 grams Bupleurum, and 9 grams peach kernel. Decoction in water.

(2) Bacillary dysentery is the most common type of dysentery during the 6th solar term in summer, because the temperature is high at this time and the germs multiply quickly. Flies, in particular, are an important vector for the spread of dysentery. Flies breed quickly and are very active during the summer. Normally, there is gastric acid in people's gastric juice, which can kill the bacteria swallowed into the stomach. However, sweating a lot in hot weather will cause a large loss of water and salt in the body, resulting in less raw materials for making gastric acid. In addition, drinking more water will cause gastric acid. It is also diluted, so the bactericidal ability is weakened, and the bacteria eaten can easily cause enteritis. During the sixth solar term in summer, people like to eat raw and cold vegetables and fruits, and they do not pay attention to disinfection, which increases the chance of bacterial population. When Shigella dysenteriae enters the human body, it takes about 1 to 7 days for the disease to develop. Dysentery is divided into three types according to the severity, severity, acuteness and slowness of the symptoms:

The first is acute bacillary dysentery: it can be divided into two types: mild and severe.

Mild cases include mild fever, diarrhea, and stool containing pus, blood, and mucus; severe cases have a rapid onset of fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, and general malaise, with increased stool frequency, up to 20 to 30 times a day.

The second type is poisonous bacillary dysentery: a sudden high fever, before the stool has pus and blood, the patient will appear comatose, convulsions and other phenomena, and is very likely to die within one or two days.

The third is chronic bacillary dysentery: If acute dysentery is not treated properly, it may turn into chronic dysentery.

①Preventive measures a. Prevent diseases from spreading through the mouth. Unclean diet is an important cause of bacillary dysentery, so preventing the disease from spreading through the mouth is a key measure to prevent bacillary dysentery. Prevent food from being contaminated by flies and cockroaches. Once contaminated, it must not be eaten. It is best not to eat clams, oysters, crabs, etc. raw. They should be cooked thoroughly before eating. Be careful not to drink unsterilized water. At the same time, pay attention to personal hygiene. Wash your hands with soap before eating and after using the toilet. Do not share a basin of water with several people. Washing utensils should be used by dedicated people, and tableware should be disinfected regularly.

b Adjustment of daily life and diet. In normal times, we should actively eliminate the internal factors that induce bacillary dysentery, pay attention to the self-regulation of cold and heat, avoid abnormal cold and temperature, do not make the body too tired, and do not overeat. When catching cold and fatigue, you should pay attention to adjusting your diet. If you suffer from malnutrition, intestinal Parasitic blood diseases, rickets, whooping cough, and measles must be treated promptly.

② Treatment plan a. Purslane and mung bean soup: 120 grams of purslane and 30 grams of mung beans. Decoction and take it 11 times a day, 3 to 4 times in a row.

b Stir-fried amaranth: Wash 500 grams of amaranth, cut into sections, stir-fry with cooking oil, season with salt, vinegar, and garlic (crush or chop finely), and serve with meals.

c The magical prescription for red and white dysentery: 3 ebony plums, 9 grams each of old tea leaves, Jingsu leaves, old ginger and white sugar. Add the above amount of water and decoct 400 mg. For white diarrhea, take it immediately. For red diarrhea, take the decoction warm overnight.

d Liuxian Recipe: 6 grams of fine tea, 30 grams of walnut kernels, 9 grams of ginger, and 9 grams of brown sugar. Decoct the above with water for 40 minutes and take 400 ml of liquid. Take it hot on an empty stomach in two doses.

(3) Summer fever in children Summer fever in children is a unique disease in infants and young children. It is characterized by long-term fever, thirst, polyuria, little or no sweating. Because it occurs during the sixth solar term in summer, it is named summer fever. It is more common in children under 3 years old. It is more common in the southeast and central-south regions of my country. The onset season is mostly concentrated in the three months of June, July, and August. It is closely related to the climate. The higher the temperature, the more severe the fever. After the cool autumn, the symptoms often disappear on their own. subside. Some children may have symptoms for several consecutive years, and the symptoms in the next year are generally younger than the previous year, and the course of the disease is also shorter.

① Preventive measures should be to strengthen infant nutrition and physical fitness, and to live in a dry, cool and ventilated place. Once a child becomes sick, he should be fed an easily digestible semi-liquid diet, spicy, fatty and sweet foods are prohibited, and attention should be paid to preventing heatstroke. Infants and young children who have been sick should move to a cooler place when the following summer arrives, and take medicines and foods that clear away heat, replenish qi, and strengthen the spleen, in order to prevent the recurrence of the disease. After a comprehensive examination by the hospital confirms the disease, do not go to the hospital repeatedly for special examinations to avoid damaging the child's disease resistance and recovery capabilities. Using traditional Chinese medicine to prevent and treat summer heat focuses on strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi, nourishing yin and protecting yang.

②Treatment plan a. Shengmai Yin can be made into a drink with flavored ingredients: 30 grams of American ginseng, 20 grams of Ophiopogon japonicus, 10 grams of licorice, 10 grams of red dates, 10 grams of pear juice, 10 grams of pineapple juice, and 15 grams of honeysuckle juice. First fry American ginseng, Ophiopogon japonicus, licorice and red dates. Fry it in 3 large bowls of water until it reaches 2 large bowls of water, remove the medicinal residue, put down the pear juice, pineapple juice, and honeysuckle juice, stir well, and drink it as tea.

b Use 20 grams of lotus seed meat (without removing the core), 10 grams of chicken gizzards (broken), 15 grams of fresh lotus leaf juice, 10 grams of artemisia annua juice, 40 grams of high-quality japonica rice, and 30 grams of mung beans. , make porridge and take it regularly.

c. Eat fruit 3 times a day. Eat 1 pear (about 30 grams) in the morning, half a pineapple (about 30 grams) at noon, and one hour after dinner, eat watermelon (about 35 grams).

3. Prevention and treatment of miscellaneous diseases during the six solar terms in summer. The prevention and treatment of common miscellaneous diseases during the six solar terms in summer are introduced as follows:

(1) Heat stroke Heat stroke, commonly known as "sha" or "sha disease", is Diseases that are common in hot summer. Under normal circumstances, the human body's heat production and heat dissipation are exactly equal, so the human body temperature is always maintained at 37°C. However, if exposed to strong summer sunlight for too long, infrared rays can cause the human brain to lose its ability to regulate body temperature, making it easy to suffer from heat stroke. In addition, if the outside temperature is high and the air humidity is high, it is difficult for sweat to evaporate. Due to excessive heat accumulation in the body, it is also easy to suffer from heat stroke. Of course, if you sweat too much, a large amount of water and salt in the body will be excreted, and if they are not replenished in time, water and salt metabolism will be disordered, which can also lead to heat stroke. Excessive physical fatigue, improper diet, and frailty are also among the causes of heat stroke.

According to research, the average temperature is higher than 30℃ and the relative humidity is higher than 72%. Lasts more than 3 days. People with heat stroke may occur.

① Preventive measures: First of all, pay attention to heatstroke protection. Wear a straw hat when working under the scorching sun, prepare cool drinks, and take heatstroke prevention medicines, such as oral Rendan, Shidishui, Huoxiang Zhengqi Pills, etc., and pay attention to work and rest. combine. Secondly, in terms of diet and daily life, the diet should be light and avoid continuing to work in a high-temperature environment when hungry. The residence should be ventilated and cool. It is also necessary to control sexual intercourse to prevent excessive heat generation. For those who are physically weak, attention should be paid to replenishing their physical constitution, such as taking medication.

After working at high temperatures for a period of time, if signs of heatstroke such as dizziness, excessive sweating, thirst, nausea, chest tightness, palpitations, and fatigue appear, you should immediately go to a cool place to rest and take heatstroke prevention diet and medicine to prevent the disease from developing.

②Treatment plan: Traditional Chinese medicine can be 20 grams of Liuyi Powder, mixed with cold boiled water and drank, or 1 bottle of ten drops of water and 15 pills of Rendan. In addition, rub the temples with cooling oil, bend the middle finger like a hook, and rub the cooling oil on the chest, from bottom to top, with medium force until the redness stops.

If the symptoms of premonitory heat stroke worsen, the body temperature will rise, the face will flush, the skin will be hot, sweating a lot, nausea and vomiting, blood pressure will drop slightly, and dizziness will occur. Treatment should be to clear away summer heat. The Chinese medicine prescription is: 20 grams of Liuyi Powder, 15 grams of fresh lotus leaves, 15 grams of honeysuckle, 10 grams of Patchouli, 10 grams of Perrin, 10 grams of mint leaves, 8 grams of almonds, 10 grams of Forsythia suspensa, and 10 grams of fresh reed root. Take it in boiled water, 1 dose a day, divided into 2 doses.

If the body temperature rises significantly, reaching 40°C or even higher, and suddenly collapses to the ground, confusion, hand and foot spasms, dry skin without sweating or sweating profusely, and blood pressure drops sharply, if rescue is not carried out in time, , often life-threatening. Treatment should be to clear away summer heat. Prescription: Take 1 bottle of Shi Dishui and 20 pills of Rendan urgently, or take 20 grams of Liuyi Powder with cold boiled water. And encourage the patient to drink more refreshing drinks containing salt, or drink 15 grams of glucose, 5 grams of salt, and 1 bowl of cold boiled water.

In addition to applying drugs or oral rehydration solutions, it is important to carry the patient to a cool place as soon as possible regardless of severity, unbutton his clothes and trousers, slightly elevate his upper body, and then apply warm water first. Rub the head and whole body, and then apply ice water or well water to the patient's head, or rub the whole body with alcohol. At the same time, fan the patient to cool down and massage the limbs and skin to promote blood circulation and increase heat dissipation. Gua Sha or acupuncture therapy can also be used for first aid. Put the patient in a cool and ventilated place, unbutton his clothes, apply a cold wet towel to his head, and rub his chest, limbs, head and face with cool oil or peppermint water. Send him to the hospital for treatment immediately.

(2) Pinkeye "Pinkeye" or "flaming eye" is a common infectious disease in ophthalmology. Medically called acute epidemic conjunctivitis. Mostly caused by bacteria or viruses. The disease can occur all year round, but it is more common during the six solar terms in summer, with an acute onset and strong contagiousness. The first symptoms of this disease are eye irritation, severe foreign body sensation, blindness, tearing, eyelid edema, increased secretions, conjunctival congestion, etc. If you are not careful, you will often infect the entire family members or classmates and friends. It does not damage vision, but it affects work and life for a period of time. Many people may have this experience. Pink eye is an infectious eye disease caused by bacteria or viruses. It spreads through hands, handkerchiefs, washing utensils, toys, bathing, swimming, etc. It is highly contagious and spreads quickly, even spreading to entire cities or large villages in a short period of time.

①Preventive measures a. During the epidemic season, anti-inflammatory eye drops are often used to maintain eye hygiene, or chrysanthemum, mulberry leaves, and prunella vulgaris can be decoctioned in water instead of tea.

b. Patients are strictly prohibited from swimming in public places.

c. The patient's handkerchiefs, face wash utensils, and pillowcases need to be isolated and disinfected.

d． The hands of medical staff and medical equipment they have come into contact with must be disinfected.

② Treatment plan: Use 3% boric acid or potassium permanganate solution with a concentration of one millionth to wash the secretions on the eyes to keep the conjunctival sac clean. Even without medicine, you should wash your eyes frequently with cold boiled water or light salt water during the illness to remove pink eye secretions. Topically apply eye drops or ointments such as neomycin, kanamycin, chloramphenicol, chlortetracycline, and erythromycin or apply them before going to bed. For viral conjunctivitis, it is better to use chlortetracycline or tetracycline eye drops plus cytarabine eye drops. If punctate keratitis occurs, cortisone eye drops or eye drops should be added. For bacterial conjunctivitis, ointments such as erythromycin and chlortetracycline can be applied. Traditional Chinese medicine baicalein eye drops and Yijianxi eye drops can also be used. Generally speaking, eye drops should be applied every hour during the day, and ointment can be used before going to bed to prevent eyelid adhesion.

(3) Acute gastroenteritis Acute gastroenteritis is one of the common diseases caused by the six solar terms in summer. People call it "June diarrhea".

The climate during the sixth solar term in summer is hot and humid, and bacteria multiply quickly. Many bacteria, such as salmonella and coliform bacteria, are the main culprits of gastroenteritis. If you do not pay attention to dietary hygiene, eat food that has been crawled by flies, drink raw water, or eat food that has gone rancid, these bacteria will take the opportunity to invade the intestinal epithelial cells, causing inflammation and damage to the intestinal mucosa, leading to acute gastrointestinal tract infection. inflammation.

Also, bacteria can secrete soluble toxins, which prompt the small intestine to secrete a large amount of water and electrolytes. The toxins stimulate the intestinal tract to accelerate peristalsis, thus causing diarrhea. If toxins enter the blood, they can cause systemic toxemia, disrupt the central nervous system and autonomic nervous system, and cause reflex vomiting. Due to diarrhea and vomiting, a large amount of fluid is excreted from the body, and sodium, potassium and bicarbonate ions are lost too much. Dehydration and electrolyte imbalance may also occur. If not treated in time, it may endanger the patient's life. Commonly used therapeutic medicinal diets are as follows.

① Preventive measures: First of all, pay attention to dietary hygiene and avoid eating foods that are too cold, too hot, or are irritating, difficult to digest, and deteriorate. It is not advisable to overeat.

Secondly, pay attention to personal hygiene, develop the habit of washing hands before meals and after using the toilet, and prevent and eliminate flies.

Again, pay attention to physical exercise, enhance physical fitness, and improve disease resistance. Exercise can enhance gastrointestinal secretion and peristalsis, thereby promoting appetite and improving the digestion and absorption process.

Finally, pay attention to adding or removing clothes and quilts in time as the climate changes to prevent the abdomen from getting cold.

② Treatment plan a Sugar and salt tea: 3 grams of green tea leaves, 0.0 grams of salt. 1 gram of sugar, 20 grams of sugar. Add the above 3 flavors and appropriate amount of water and fry into 200 ml. One dose per day, taken in divided doses.

b. Jujube and woody scent soup: 20 jujubes and 6 grams of woody scent. Remove the pits from the jujube and sauté it over low heat for 1 hour, then simmer for a while, remove the residue and take it warm. 2 to 3 times a day.

c Black plum soup: 10 ebony plums, appropriate amount of brown sugar. Add 500 ml of water to decoct the ebony plum, add an appropriate amount of brown sugar, replace it with tea, and drink it several times a day.

d Those whose condition is not serious can take oral antibiotics such as berberine, norfloxacin and digestive drugs such as yeast tablets, pepsin, and lactase. They can also take oryzanol, vitamin B, and vitamin C to prevent diarrhea. If the frequency is more frequent, intestinal astringents can be added.

Chinese patent medicines and single prescriptions also have good results. For example, you can take Baohe Pills, 2 pills each time, 2 times a day; Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, 4 to 10 ml each time, 2 times a day. You can also use three small cloves of garlic, a small cup of rice vinegar (about 100 ml), mash the garlic, and slowly swallow it with the rice vinegar, or 30 to 60 grams of ferns (for dry use), 60 to 90 grams (for raw use), Decoction in water.

If you have excessive diarrhea, severe abdominal pain, high fever, poor energy, skin loss and other symptoms of dehydration, you must go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time.

(4) Sweat spots During the 6th solar term in summer, some people will have flaky depigmented spots of varying sizes, often with tiny scaling attached to them, which may feel itchy and become more obvious after sweating. People often mistake this for stains after sweating, commonly known as "sweat stains". In fact, this is a chronic mild infection of the superficial cuticle of the skin caused by fungi, medically known as tinea versicolor. Its skin lesions are characterized by scattered or fused light-colored or colored areas with chaff-like desquamation, which mostly occur on the chest, abdomen, upper arms and back, and sometimes can also affect the face, neck and other parts. Because this fungus likes to grow and reproduce in hot and humid environments, it is more susceptible to this disease in summer. It is somewhat contagious and difficult to eradicate. However, it is worth noting that because this disease is not very painful, it is often ignored and treatment is delayed. Especially since the skin lesions of this disease are characterized by depigmentation, they are sometimes mistaken for vitiligo, which increases the mental burden of the patient and even leads to mistreatment. Therefore, the best way is to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible if you have similar skin lesions and symptoms. Commonly used medicated dietary treatments are as follows.

① Preventive measures a. Strengthen personal hygiene, change underwear frequently, and bathe frequently.

b. The undershirt and shorts worn by the patient should be boiled and disinfected.

②Treatment plan a. Stewed pig intestine with raw mung beans: 30 grams of raw ground, 90 grams of mung beans, 1 corner of tangerine peel, 1 pig intestine, a little salt. Remove the fat mucosa from the pig's large intestine, salt it with salt and rub it, wash it with clean water: cut it into sections and set aside. Wash raw rehmannia, mung beans and tangerine peel with clean water respectively and set aside. Put an appropriate amount of water into the clay pot, simmer it over high heat until the water boils, then add all the above ingredients, switch to medium heat and simmer for about 2 hours, add a little salt to taste, and it is ready to drink.

b. Raw fish soup: 1 piece of raw fish, appropriate amount of cocklebur seeds and cocklebur leaves. Remove the intestines from the fish, stuff the fish belly with Xanthium leaves, put the Xanthium seeds in the pot, put the fish on it, add water, cook over low heat, remove the skin and bones and serve cleanly (without adding salt and sauce).

(5) Athlete's foot is also called athlete's foot. Athlete's foot is more likely to occur in adults, mostly in summer and autumn, and can be transmitted to each other.

The main cause of this disease is mutual infection through public foot basins, slippers, and foot washing in pools. Especially those who wear rubber shoes, sneakers, and plastic shoes are more likely to be infected. During the sixth solar term in summer, the weather is hot and the ground is wet. If you live in a wetland for a long time, you may also develop athlete's foot if you are infected with dampness poison.

①Preventive measures a. Keep your feet clean and dry regularly.

b. If possible, avoid wearing rubber shoes, cloth shoes or sandals.

c. Apply some prickly heat powder or alum powder after washing your feet every night.

d. Foot basins, foot cloths, slippers and other utensils must be provided exclusively for patients.

e It is best to scald the shoes and socks worn by people suffering from foot moisture with boiling water or expose them to the sun.

②Treatment plan a. 10 grams each of Fengfeng, Schizonepeta, Acanthopanax bark, Dafengzi, safflower, Diendobarbarum, and Saponaria, and 5 grams of alum (pulverized). Soak 1 kg of the above traditional Chinese medicine in vinegar for 24 hours. Soak the affected area with the solution for 15 minutes every night for 10 days.

b. 10 grams each of Coptis chinensis, Cortex Phellodendron, alum, camphor, tangerine peel, gypsum, official powder, and borneol 5 grams. Grind the medicinal powder into fine powder, sift it, add appropriate amount of sesame oil to make a paste, and apply it to the affected area. This prescription has good effect on erosive and suppurative athlete's foot.

c. 20 grams of double flower, 15 grams of ground bark, 10 grams of dandelion, 10 grams of safflower, 10 grams of Ligusticum chuanxiong, 10 grams of frankincense, and 10 grams of myrrh. Soak the medicine in water for half an hour and then put it into a pot. After the water boils, simmer for half an hour. Fume and wash the affected area while it is hot for 30 minutes each time. Finally, take an appropriate amount of the medicine residue and apply it to the affected area. Once a day in the morning and once in the evening. The effect is remarkable. Indications: athlete's foot infection; injuries from bruises; carbuncle swelling.

d. 30 grams of saltpetre, 30 grams of gallbladder, 30 grams of borneol, 50 grams of alum, 30 grams of realgar, 30 grams of calamine, and 500 grams of petroleum jelly. Grind the medicine into fine powder, pass it through a 120-mesh sieve, mix the medicine powder with 500 grams of petroleum jelly, and bottle it for later use.

Before treatment, pour 1000ml boiling water into the basin, put 20g of salt into the basin, wait until the water temperature is suitable, soak the affected feet for 30 minutes, dry them and then apply ointment, and rub them repeatedly with your hands to clear the sweat glands and allow the medicine to reach the disease directly. Place. This method is mostly suitable for dry, flaky and vesicular tinea pedis. If you encounter a person with wet exudation and erosion infection, remove the Vaseline as shown above and make a powder. Take 30 grams of the powder and put it into a washbasin. Pour in 1000ml of boiling water to dissolve. When the water temperature is suitable, put it into the affected foot and soak it for 30 minutes and wipe it dry. Then, take an appropriate amount of medicinal powder and sprinkle it evenly on the erosion surface. Use the above medicine twice a day. Avoid alcohol and spicy food. Mild cases can be treated for one week, while severe cases can be cured within half a month. The effective rate is 100%.

(6) Air-conditioning disease With the improvement of people's living standards and changes in lifestyle, there are more and more modern lifestyle diseases, and air-conditioning disease is one of them. The so-called air conditioning disease is a common disease caused by users' inability to use air conditioners scientifically. It mainly manifests as headache, fatigue, dry skin, sore throat, numbness of hands and feet, gastrointestinal discomfort, etc. Women may also experience menstrual disorders.

The manifestations of air-conditioning disease vary, but generally speaking, there are three types:

① Air-conditioning discomfort According to a "Survey on the Impact of Air Conditioning on Human Health", 40 % of people have symptoms such as headache, dizziness, irritability, sore throat, gastrointestinal discomfort and dry skin after staying in an air-conditioned room for a long time.

The reasons for the above symptoms:

First, because the outdoor temperature is very high in summer, the temperature in the air-conditioned room is low, and the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is large. Frequent entry and exit of air-conditioned rooms will cause people to feel hot and cold, which can easily lead to dysfunction of the body's temperature balance regulation system. If you stay in an air-conditioned room for a long time, when the cold feeling is transmitted to the brain's temperature regulation center, the brain will instruct the peripheral blood vessels of the skin to constrict, and the sweat glands distributed throughout the body will reduce secretion to reduce the dissipation of heat to maintain body temperature. At the same time, the feeling of cold also excites the sympathetic nerves, causing the blood vessels distributed in the abdominal organs to contract and weakening gastrointestinal motility, resulting in symptoms such as numbness of the limbs, dry skin, and gastrointestinal discomfort.

Second, the air circulation in air-conditioned rooms is poor, leaving people in an environment of low oxygen and high carbon dioxide. Generally, air-conditioned rooms are well sealed and indoor and outdoor air cannot circulate. If there are many people in a room, a large amount of oxygen in the air will be consumed, the negative ion content will decrease, and the carbon dioxide concentration will increase greatly. Over time, the indoor air will become turbid. Living in such an environment of low oxygen and high carbon dioxide can easily cause depression, dizziness, forgetfulness, memory loss, loss of appetite, and reduced work efficiency.

②Allergic reaction In an air-conditioned room, if carpets are laid, bedding is placed, and the temperature is suitable, it provides the best living environment for the survival and mass reproduction of mites. The secretions they excrete when they reproduce will fill the room with dust. When these foreign proteins are inhaled into the respiratory tract, they can induce or aggravate some allergic reactions, such as asthma, hay fever, eczema, etc.

③Bacterial diseases Due to the poor air circulation in air-conditioned rooms, various germs and harmful microorganisms can easily breed and multiply in such an environment, causing people living here to get sick through respiratory infections. Among them, the most common one is air-conditioning pneumonia, which can clinically manifest as chills, cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, limb weakness and other symptoms. In severe cases, other diseases may occur. In addition, air-conditioned rooms that are not exposed to sunlight are most suitable for the survival and reproduction of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which can easily infect young children and the elderly with poor immune function.

④ Preventive measures: a. Use shoes to adjust the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor. Generally, the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor should not exceed 6℃. Within this temperature range, the body's temperature regulation center can adjust flexibly and freely. If the temperature difference exceeds this range, discomfort may occur due to loss of regulation.

b Pay attention to indoor ventilation. Every 3 to 4 hours, you should turn off the air conditioner, open the doors and windows, allow indoor and outdoor air to circulate thoroughly, inject fresh air, and then close the door and turn it on. You can also use a negative ion generator. This can relatively improve the quality of the air, thereby reducing the occurrence of fatigue and headaches.

c. Control the flow rate of air. The flow rate of air should be maintained at about 20 centimeters per second. If the flow rate is too high, the pressure of cold air on the human body will be greater than normal, causing adverse effects on the human body.
