Attention should be paid to the cold weather.

Recently, the weather in many places in China has been hot and cold, followed by the invasion of "autumn disease". Jiang Tianjun, an attending physician in the Department of Infectious Diseases of the 302nd Hospital of the People's Liberation Army, said that autumn is a season of alternating cold and summer, and the climate is characterized by high humidity and heat in early autumn. After the Millennium, the rain decreased, the climate was dry, and the days were hot and the nights were cool. It gets cold quickly after the cold dew. Due to the increasing temperature difference between day and night, it is difficult for many people to adapt to the climate change, and it is easy to have diseases or lead to the recurrence of old diseases. To this end, Dr. Jiang reminded everyone that autumn is a season of frequent diseases, and it is necessary to do a good job in health care and disease prevention according to climate change, so as to prevent problems before they happen.

First, prevent the spread of colds. The abnormal climate change in autumn is the season with high incidence of colds and colds. Especially in the case of poor ventilation in the working environment, colds are more likely to spread quickly between offices. Therefore, it is very important to keep good ventilation; Secondly, we should follow the laws of "covering spring and freezing autumn" and "cold-resistant exercise begins in autumn". Those with good constitution mainly wear light-colored clothes and thin shirts, and those with poor constitution should add clothes in time according to climate change.

In addition, every year around 10 is the flu vaccination season, and people with poor health or basic diseases should actively carry out vaccination. In dry autumn, you need to drink more water to enhance your metabolism. When a cold is prevalent, you can fumigate the room with mature vinegar, and often wash your face and nose with cold water, which also helps to prevent colds.

Second, prevent asthma attacks. In autumn, the air is dry and there are many allergens, which can easily infringe on some people with allergies and often cause asthma. Because people with a history of asthma are extremely sensitive to the changes of atmospheric temperature and humidity, their adaptability is weak, and bronchial asthma is easily induced by upper respiratory tract infection. Those who have a history of asthma should try to find out the allergenic causes that may cause asthma and avoid contact with allergenic substances. Secondly, with the change of temperature, clothes and bedding should be added in time, and the air conditioning temperature should be adjusted to prevent catching cold. We should also pay attention to strengthening nutrition and exercise.

If you take the corresponding tonic, you can prevent or alleviate the occurrence or development of bronchial asthma. There are the following supplements: stewed pork lungs with pears. 250g pig lung, Bulbus Fritillariae Cirrhosae 10g, 2 Sydney, and a little rock sugar. Cut the Sydney into several pieces, slice the pig's lungs, put them in a casserole with Fritillaria cirrhosa, add some rock sugar, and cook slowly until the pig's lungs are cooked. You can take it regularly. In addition, you can also eat honey stewed radish and winter grass stewed old duck.

Third, prevent the recurrence of chronic bronchitis. Chinese medicine believes that "heaven and man correspond", the room is quiet and tidy, and doors and windows are often opened for ventilation to keep the air fresh. Indoor temperature should be controlled at 18℃-20℃ and relative humidity at 40%-50%. 70% of patients with chronic bronchitis have relapsed from the old disease. The disease lasts for a week and a half, and it will not heal for more than half a month. People with old diseases should pay attention to exercise, strengthen outdoor activities and enhance physical resistance; Pay attention to keep warm and cold, eat less spicy food, quit smoking and drink less. Normal people should also increase or decrease their clothes in time to prevent illness and recurrence due to cold.

Fourth, prevent stomach trouble. Stimulated by cold air, gastric acid secretion increases, gastrointestinal spasmodic contraction occurs, and resistance and adaptability decrease. Traditional medicine believes that the gastrointestinal tract is very sensitive to cold stimulation. If it is not properly protected, it will lead to gastrointestinal diseases, such as acid regurgitation, abdominal distension, diarrhea and abdominal pain. , or make the original stomach disease worse. In severe cases, it will also cause complications such as gastric bleeding and gastric perforation.

Therefore, it should be protected from the following aspects:

1, to prevent abdominal cold. As the saying goes, "one autumn rain is cold, and ten autumn rains wear cotton." After the autumn is cool, the temperature difference between day and night changes greatly. People with chronic gastritis should pay special attention to keeping their stomachs warm. With the change of climate, they should put on more clothes at the right time, and cover their bedding at night to prevent their stomachs from catching cold, which will lead to stomachache or aggravate old diseases.

2. Strengthen physical exercise.

3, pay attention to diet aftercare. The diet of patients with gastropathy should be warm, soft, light, vegetarian and fresh, so as to eat less and eat more meals regularly, so that there is always food in the stomach to neutralize gastric acid and prevent the erosion of gastric mucosa and ulcer surface from aggravating the condition. Pay attention to taboos, do not eat cold, too hot, too hard, too spicy, too sticky food, but also quit smoking and drinking.

4. Pay attention to mental health. The occurrence and development of gastropathy and duodenal ulcer are closely related to people's mood and mentality. Therefore, it is very important to keep cheerful and emotional stability and avoid the stimulation of bad emotions such as anxiety, fear, tension and sadness. At the same time, pay attention to the combination of work and rest to prevent excessive fatigue from affecting the recovery of stomach diseases.

5. Avoid drug irritation. Clinical practice has proved that the stimulation of some Chinese and western medicines can enlarge the ulcer surface and aggravate the condition. Therefore, prednisone, dexamethasone, aspirin, phenylbutazone, indomethacin, Radix Saposhnikoviae, Radix Clematidis and other drugs with strong irritation to gastric mucosa should be banned. If you need to take these drugs, you should pay attention to the method of taking them, preferably after meals, or add drugs for treating stomach diseases at the same time.

5. Prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In autumn, the weather turns cold. Due to the contraction of blood vessels in skin and subcutaneous tissue, the resistance of peripheral blood vessels increases and blood pressure rises. Cold can also cause coronary artery spasm, directly affect the blood supply to the heart, and induce angina pectoris or myocardial infarction. Therefore, patients with cardiovascular diseases should insist on taking medicine, do physical exercise as much as possible, and actively prevent and treat colds so as not to aggravate cardiovascular diseases. Dietary intake of foods rich in protein, magnesium and calcium can effectively prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and reduce the occurrence of cerebrovascular accidents. To prevent overeating, dinner should be divided into eight parts; Drinking light tea during the day has a protective effect on the heart.

Those with heavy mental work and relatively insufficient physical exercise are prone to primary diseases such as hypertension and hyperlipidemia that induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents. Therefore, you should monitor your physical condition and fully understand your "vital data" (such as blood pressure and pulse). ), and pay attention to the premonitory symptoms. If you find sudden dizziness, severe headache, blurred vision and numbness of limbs, you should go to the hospital for treatment in time.

Sixth, prevent autumn dryness and skin damage. The climate in autumn is dry, and the air lacks moisture. People are prone to a series of dry symptoms such as dry nasopharynx, hoarseness, dry cough with little phlegm, thirst and constipation, commonly known as "autumn dryness". Autumn dryness not only makes people feel uncomfortable, but also induces many infectious diseases, such as colds, boils and rhinitis. Therefore, we must nourish yin and prevent dryness in autumn: First, eat less greasy, too sweet, too spicy and too salty things; Diet is mainly light; Drink less sweet drinks. Second, eat more coarse grains and things rich in cellulose and minerals to promote defecation. Because of long-term constipation, "fire" can't be sent out, and body fluid burns naturally. Third, do more exercise. Exercise promotes blood circulation and body fluids naturally overflow. Fourth, the diet should be cold, and the isothermal foods such as mutton, dog meat, shrimp and leek should be eaten less. There are many cold foods, such as tofu, black beans, pears, tremella, sesame and lily. However, many fresh fruits and vegetables in the autumn market are rich in various nutrients needed by the human body, which have the effects of nourishing yin and moistening lung, moistening dryness and promoting fluid production, and are the best food for health care in autumn.

Early to bed and early to rise in daily life. Go to bed early to nourish yin, get up early to moisten lungs, breathe fresh air, and make your body full of body fluid and energy. In autumn, the evaporation of skin moisture is accelerated, and the exposed skin will become rough and inelastic due to lack of water, and it will be chapped in severe cases. So don't use alkaline products for bathing. Pay attention to the daily care of the skin, eat more loach, mud carp, white duck, peanuts, red dates, lotus seeds, grapes, sugar cane, sesame seeds, walnuts, honey, tremella, pears and other foods, which can better moisturize the skin and beautify the face.
