In winter, many people feel itchy. Some people think that this is because the bath is not clean enough, so they wash it with hot water. I don't know. The more they wash, the more itchy they get. They are bleeding and still itchy.
To deal with this problem, you can try to wear pure cotton and soft underwear to keep it clean and loose; Eat more foods rich in vitamin A, such as lean meat, animal liver, carrots, spinach and bean products, and eat less irritating foods, such as peppers, cows, sheep, dogs and geese. If the elderly use electric blankets, the temperature should not be too high and the time should not be too long. Last but not least, the temperature of the bath water should not be too high. Don't think that the itching on your body can be relieved by soaking in hot water, which will only make you itch more. Don't take a long bath, and don't use alkaline soap; It is best to apply some lotion after bathing, which can reduce and prevent skin itching.
2. It may lead to sudden death if you urinate at night in winter.
"The living are suffocated by urine" is not a joke. Long winter nights, people who are afraid of the cold outside the bed and go to the toilet at dawn should pay attention. Holding urine for a long time will not only affect the health of urinary system, but also lead to sudden death in severe cases.
Zhang Xinnan, director of urology department of Hangzhou Third Hospital, said that urine containing bacteria and toxic substances in the bladder could not be discharged in time after a long period of urination, and the bacteria in the urinary system retrograde to the prostate through the prostate tube, causing infection and leading to prostatitis. At the same time, it is easy to cause cystitis, urethritis, dysuria, hematuria or enuresis. Another study shows that male prostatitis may also spread upward to the kidney, causing pyelonephritis and even affecting renal function. At the same time, foreign research data show that the less times of urination, the greater the risk of bladder cancer, because holding urine increases the action time of carcinogens in urine on bladder.
In addition, under the induction of both physiological and psychological stress caused by holding urine, the blood pressure of hypertensive patients will increase, the heartbeat will accelerate, and patients with coronary heart disease will have symptoms such as angina pectoris and arrhythmia. Therefore, holding urine will not only accelerate the heart rate and increase the myocardial oxygen consumption, but also become the fuse of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and even lead to sudden death.
3. Experts suggest anti-static in winter
How to prevent static electricity in winter? Experts in dermatology of Chinese medicine hospital recently gave five tips to the public.
First of all, keep a certain humidity indoors. In addition to regular ventilation, always mop the floor, often sprinkle water, or put some potted flowers and plants; Try to avoid using chemical fiber carpets, curtains and plastic ornaments. Second, try to avoid wearing chemical fiber clothes. You can use antistatic detergent when washing clothes. The third is to use skin care products with good moisturizing performance to ensure the moisture of the skin; Taking a bath and changing clothes frequently can also effectively eliminate the accumulated charges and charged dust on the human surface. Fourthly, in terms of diet, the intake of foods containing vitamin C, A, E and acid can be appropriately increased, such as carrots, cabbages, tomatoes, bananas, apples, kiwis and other fruits containing a lot of vitamin C. Hairtail and turtle can increase skin elasticity and moisture retention, and have good antistatic function. Fifth, before touching the door handle or faucet, touch the wall with your hands to "release" the static electricity in your body.
4. The elderly should pay attention to the "five defenses" in winter.
In winter, the climate is cold, and human metabolism is slow, especially for the elderly. I'm sorry, but once it's over, is this a joke Are you bald? Lu Dan? Temminick？ About Bo ∪° Ⅲ? Is it far? What's wrong with thinking and worrying about summer? Br> Nose protection: The nose is the gateway to the respiratory system. When the blood supply to the nasal mucosa of the elderly is reduced, the adhesion of the nose to germs and the heating effect on cold air will be weakened, so that the air with germs will directly enter the lungs, thus aggravating respiratory tract infection and inducing cardiopulmonary diseases such as asthma, chronic bronchitis and pulmonary heart disease. Nose protection includes nose massage, insisting on washing the nose with cold salt, not going to crowded and closed public places to reduce the invasion of germs on the nose, and trying to wear masks when going out to reduce the irritation of cold air on the nose.
Brain protection: According to statistics, about 70% of stroke patients get sick in winter. The key to protecting the brain in winter is to take precautions. To prevent stroke, we must first treat primary diseases such as hypertension, coronary heart disease and diabetes. Secondly, we should pay attention to the timely detection of premonitory symptoms, such as sudden dizziness, severe headache, blurred vision, aphasia, numbness of limbs and so on. Once such symptoms appear, they should be sent to the hospital in time.
Heart care: Lower temperature in winter will lead to an increase in the incidence of heart disease. To protect the heart in winter, we should strengthen physical exercise, pay attention to cold and warmth, and do not advocate outdoor sports in winter for the elderly who already have heart disease.
Protecting stomach: Because cold stimulation can increase the content of histamine in blood and accelerate the secretion of gastric acid, stomach diseases are easy to recur in winter. To protect the stomach in winter, we should pay attention to keeping the stomach warm, the diet should be light and soft, easy to digest, eat less and eat more meals, avoid raw food, and quit smoking and drinking.
Skin care: the function of sebaceous glands in the elderly is decreased, and it is easy to produce itchy skin in cold and dry climate. Protective measures include: proper bathing times, less use of soap, use of electric blanket for heating, the temperature should not be too high and the time should not be too long; Take part in physical exercise properly, improve the whole body blood circulation, and promote the secretion of sweat glands and sebaceous glands.
5. How to wash down jackets?
Lesson 1: Wash your hands.
On the inside of the down jacket, there is a small label printed with maintenance and washing instructions. Careful people will find that 90% of down jackets are marked with hand washing, and dry cleaning is forbidden, because the liquid medicine used for dry cleaning will affect the warmth and make the fabric aging. Machine washing and spin-drying, twisted down jackets easily lead to uneven thickness of fillers, which makes clothes deformed and affects beauty and warmth.
Experience 2: 30-degree water temperature flushing.
First, soak the down jacket in cold water for 20 minutes, so that the inside and outside of the down jacket are fully wet. Dissolve the detergent in warm water of 30 degrees, then soak the down jacket in it for a quarter of an hour, and then gently brush it with a soft brush. Warm water should also be used for rinsing, which can help the detergent to fully dissolve in water and make the down jacket rinse more cleanly.
Experience 3: the concentration of washing powder should not be too high.
If you must use washing powder to clean down jackets, it is usually appropriate to put 4 to 5 tablespoons of washing powder in two washbasins. If the concentration is too high, it is difficult to wash off, and the residual washing powder in down will affect the fluffy degree of down and greatly reduce the warmth.
Experience 4: It is best to use neutral detergent.
Neutral detergents do the least harm to clothes and down. If alkaline detergent is used, the residual detergent will cause damage to the down jacket, and it is easy to leave white marks on the surface of the clothes, which will affect the appearance. To remove the residual alkaline detergent, rinse it twice, add two teaspoons of vinegar in warm water, and soak the down jacket for a while before rinsing. Vinegar can neutralize alkaline detergent.
Lesson 5: Don't screw it out.
Don't wring out the down jacket after washing. Water should be squeezed out and then laid flat or hung to dry. Exposure and ironing are prohibited to avoid scalding clothes. After drying, you can pat it gently to make the down jacket fluffy and soft.
