Old people's rooms must be heated in winter to keep the room temperature above 15 degrees Celsius. Because if the room temperature is too low, the elderly will be easily attacked by cold pathogens, which will induce respiratory system and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases with serious consequences.

There are many fire pits in the north in winter, and more and more people use electric blankets in recent years. No matter which one is adopted, it is better to have a suitable temperature. Similarly, whether using a stove, heating or air conditioning, the room temperature should be around 18℃~20℃, and the temperature should not be too high, so as not to disturb the internal yang and make it leak out, or accumulate heat in it, resulting in excessive fire due to yin deficiency and phlegm-heat stagnation, which will cause diseases or induce the recurrence of chronic diseases in spring.

2. Keep warm when traveling

In snowy weather in winter, the elderly should prevent falling. Especially when there is ice and snow on the road, it is best not to go out. If you need to go out, you should be accompanied by someone to prevent slipping and falling. Old people living in buildings should be careful when going upstairs and downstairs, and it is best to have someone to help them. Lighting should be provided at the corners of corridors and stairs at home so that the elderly can see the road clearly when walking.

Many elderly people suffer from chronic diseases, and their activities are inconvenient, so their families have to take care of them. When going out, take a bath in the bunk bed, and pay attention to prevent falling, so as to avoid accidents such as fractures and cerebral hemorrhage.

Step 3 keep your head warm

The head is the meeting of all yang, and yang is the easiest to get rid of it, just like the lid of a hot water bottle stopper. If you don't pay attention to keep your head warm, it is easy to cause rhinitis, headache, cold, toothache, trigeminal neuralgia and other diseases, and even more serious, it is easy to induce cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, it is essential for the elderly to wear a suitable hat in winter, especially when going out.

Step 4 keep warm

In winter, the elderly should add clothes in time with the change of external temperature, pay attention to keep warm, and don't let the cold invade the body.

Elastic belt should be used as underwear belt, which is convenient to put on and take off and should not be tightly wrapped around the body; Wool, silk cotton, down, acrylic cotton and other light, fluffy and warm-keeping materials should be used as the lining of cotton-padded clothes; The collar and cuffs of clothing should adopt closed structure to reduce breathability and increase warmth. Only in this way can the old people not catch a cold easily, prevent the recurrence of old diseases, and thus promote their health.
