The weather is gradually getting warmer, and some diseases will follow, such as respiratory system diseases, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, etc. Li Xiangfen, chief physician of the Department of Cardiology of the Second People’s Hospital of the City, reminded, Doing a good job of protection is the top priority of dealing with “spring disease”.
Be careful of acute urticaria
Some people with allergies should prevent acute urticaria especially in spring. Urticaria is a high incidence in spring. According to experts, all urticaria are acute at first. Generally, the rash is repeated for more than 6 weeks, which is called chronic urticaria. The etiology of urticaria is complex, and its allergens may come from both the body and the outside. People with allergies are at high risk of urticaria. They are more sensitive to allergens than normal people, and have more intense allergic reactions after being stimulated. Seafood, eggs, formaldehyde, pollen, etc. are all common allergens, and cold, stress, etc. may cause hives.
The focus of preventing hives is to avoid contact with allergens, such as those who are allergic to pollen, try not to be near flowers. People with recurrent urticaria can always prepare some anti-allergic drugs under the guidance of a doctor.
Preventing Respiratory Infections
In early spring, the respiratory system is the most vulnerable when the temperature fluctuates. Upper respiratory tract infections mostly occur in the nose, pharynx, and throat, usually with nasal congestion, coughing, sneezing, runny nose, sore throat and other symptoms, lasting for 5 days or a week. Lower respiratory tract infections often occur in the bronchi and lungs. It lasts for a relatively long time, and symptoms such as cough, asthma and fatigue may occur.
To prevent respiratory diseases in spring, we must first pay attention to nourishing the lungs. You can eat more ingredients that nourish the lungs and moisten the lungs every day, such as white fungus, fungus, barley, honey, lily, radish, lotus root, etc. In addition, Sydney, pineapple, apple, grapefruit, lemon and other fruits can also be eaten.
Beware of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases
The cold and warm seasons in early spring are unpredictable, and this is also the period of high incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Some people, especially the elderly, have difficulty adapting to temperature changes due to vascular sclerosis, which is easy to induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Li Xiangfen suggested that patients with high blood pressure, atherosclerosis and diabetes should pay attention to temperature changes, and should be calm and nourished to prevent the recurrence of old diseases. If you have such patients at home, you can prepare emergency medicine in advance in case of emergency. ③2
