I’ve been walking on frosty streets for several days, watching and notice how many mistakes some comrades make by exposing your health at risk. ERROR No. 1 – RESPIRATORY. Quite a few there are people on the street who wrap their nose and mouth with a scarf. A this is a prelude to angina or bronchitis. Exhaled in wool under it turns into ice by the action of frost, ice forms on the scarf, and the following portions of air will enter the body through this ice layer, that is, the air becomes even colder. ERROR No. 2 – BOW. This error explains the first. If a person wraps his face with a scarf, which means that his nose does not breathe and has to to capture oxygen by mouth, and this is very difficult – do not inhale, but swallow frosty air. That stretches hand to face – somehow hide behind. Therefore, it is very important to thoroughly clean your nose and only then go out into the cold outside. ERROR No. 3 – NAZAL. To restore the breath of a stuffy nose, many use nasal drops. This should not be done before going out in the cold. Nasal drops constrict the vessels in the nasopharynx. In the cold vessels may receive orders from the brain to narrow again. Highly an unpleasant sensation then occurs in the nasopharynx – dryness, tickle. And the mucous membrane no longer performs its main functions – not protects against microorganisms, does not warm the inhaled air as supposed to. ERROR No. 4 – SHIPPING. Quite often observe such a picture: the whole skukozhny, trembling, with nerve-jumping gait the unfortunate froze rushes not noticing anything around you. But here she is – a pharmacy. Will come warmed up? No, I ran past. And this is a very big mistake. It will be more correct at the very first symptoms of just beginning freezing immediately enter any room (shop, cafe, pharmacy) for a few minutes – bask. And then move on. ERROR No. 5 – RESPIRATORY. With low cons, breathe deeply impossible. Yes, and dangerous to health. I have to take breaths in small portions of air. Whereby sooner or later hypoxia occurs (lack of oxygen). More truly, she only begins, and the body already requires to eliminate it: breathe deeper and more often. The load on the heart increases as it increases cuts per minute to increase intensity blood circulation and at least in this way to bring more oxygen to the cells. Against this background, someone begins tachycardia, someone experiencing a severe headache. In general, trouble. But people suffer and still running faster and faster to their destination. On the it’s actually better to lose a few minutes, but go into shop-cafe-pharmacy, so as to catch your breath, get enough oxygen. TIP! I can share my long-developed the rule of behavior in the cold, which I always follow. After going out in the cold, I go literally 3-4 minutes and immediately, even before freezing, I go to the store. Also literally a few minutes. During this time I warm up, carefully blow my nose (because that in the cold, a secret has developed in the nose that interferes breathe), but at the same time I take a few deep breaths, saturated oxygen. Believe me, after this frost is perceived differently, already not so aggressive, the body behaves without panic, starts better work on your own heating. And most importantly – as a result the time spent in the cold increases to the following symptoms freezing. I can walk for 30 and 40 minutes in the cold without any problems. ERROR No. 6 – TEA. This mistake is also made many drink hot tea and immediately go out into the street. Logics of course there is. Hot tea increases blood circulation, the body’s defenses increase the most. But at the same time, because the vessels expanding. So, going out into the cold with dilated vessels, we immediately lose a lot of our own heat. After hot tea or coffee on the street, you can go no earlier than half an hour. ERROR No. 7 – WASHING. For the same reason in no In case you can not take a shower before going out. Hypothermia come even faster! In general, we must be ready to rearrange places of business, abandon the usual course of action during severe frosts. ERROR No. 8 – HEAD. This mistake is made mostly our ladies. Wash your hair in the morning, due to eternal fuss and in a hurry many do not dry hair thoroughly and with a little wet go outside. It is absolutely impossible to do this, since the process of losing one’s own body temperature increases and from wet clothes, and wet hair. In conclusion, I want to confess – people who do not shake, do not bounce, do not squish their nose, but go calmly and relaxed along a frosty street, everything becomes more. And it pleases. So they do everything right. Tatyana Ressina, medical reviewer.
