Do you often wear hats in winter?

Statistics show that most cerebrovascular diseases have death peaks 1 day and 5 days after cold air transits. For the elderly, frail and ill-ridden, it is easy to cause diseases, leading to the deterioration of the condition and even death.

The human head is the seat of the nerve center, and it is the "meeting of all Yang". Although the skin of the head is thin, it is covered with blood vessels and hair, so a lot of heat in the body tends to radiate from the head. Relevant research data show that when the temperature is about 15℃, about 1/3 of the body's heat is emitted from the head; When the temperature is about 4℃, about 1/2 of the human body's heat is emitted from the head; When the temperature is around-10℃, 3/4 of the heat in the human body will "run away" from the head. Because so much heat is emitted from the head, protecting the head reduces the heat emitted by the body, so it is very important to wear a hat when going out. Wearing a hat in cold weather can not only keep warm, especially for the elderly with chronic diseases such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, respiratory diseases and digestive tract diseases, but also avoid the occurrence of diseases such as colds, coughs, headaches and facial paralysis.

The material of the hat should be soft, light and warm. People with high blood pressure should not wear too heavy hats, let alone too tight ones. The hat is too tight, the scalp is squeezed for a long time, and the blood circulation is not smooth, leading to headache. After the weather gets warmer, you can take off your hat slowly according to your physical condition. In addition, in the cold winter, the elderly who exercise in the morning can easily induce heart disease and stroke. Therefore, it is recommended that the elderly exercise in the afternoon.

After entering the "March 9" day, the number of cerebrovascular patients who came to the hospital for treatment increased significantly. Cold air is an accomplice in cold season. I suggest you don't forget to wear your hat when you go out.
