Is rainy day good for your health?

It has been raining recently, and it is also a rainstorm in June and July every year. Thunderstorms occur frequently, and it rains very muggy in summer, with many mosquitoes and humid environment. Is rainy day good for your health? Is frequent rain good for human body? Rainy days have a great influence on people's health. The following small series is for everyone to introduce.

1, the impact on health

Thunderstorm weather is accompanied by a drop in temperature and an increase in humidity, which makes people feel that the air is a bit sticky. Patients with rheumatism and rheumatoid diseases often relapse, and people with poor spleen and stomach are prone to stomach cold. Moreover, wet weather can make people feel depressed, upset and fidgety, and it will also affect the quality of sleep.

So how should we cope with the next rainstorm and stay healthy?

First of all, don't think that you don't have to worry about catching a cold when the temperature is high in summer. On the contrary, people with poor physical resistance (children, the elderly, pregnant women, etc. ) or people with chronic gastrointestinal diseases must pay attention to keep warm and cold. Sudden rainstorm will make the temperature drop by about ten degrees. This kind of weather is hot and cold, vacillating, and the mood of waiting for the exam results is generally very irritable. Remember to increase or decrease clothes in time, and eat cold food such as watermelon and ice cream when the temperature rises.

Secondly, most people are indoors in rainstorm weather, because the humidity is high and the temperature is between 20-30 degrees, which is just suitable for bacterial growth. If you stay indoors for a long time, please keep good ventilation, especially for patients with respiratory diseases and rheumatism.

It should also be remembered that when thunderstorms pour down, flat and empty places, such as football and basketball courts, wilderness and seaside beaches, are very dangerous places. At this time, people walking and tall trees are abrupt and tall relative to the surrounding environment, and lightning likes to inject current into a place with relatively high environment.

So in thunderstorm weather, it is dangerous not only to stand under a tree, but also to walk in the rain.

If you trudge in the wilderness during a thunderstorm and there is nowhere to run, you'd better go to the lowest place there, such as a cave or a low-lying place. If you can't find a low-lying place for a while, when lightning rings, squat down and throw yourself down, make yourself short in an instant, and cover your ears with your hands.

If you are in a car, when a thunderstorm rings, slow down or stop, and don't rush in the wind, which is also easy to be locked by lightning.

Finally, I would like to remind everyone that no matter whether it is hot sun or heavy rain, we must adjust our emotions and not be affected by the dense rain. Gloomy mood will not only affect the enthusiasm of work, but also affect our personal health. If you have time, you might as well interact with friends and family more, and don't be overworked in your work and life.
