Professor Qin Min, chief physician of the Department of Acupuncture and Rehabilitation, Guangdong Second Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that slow blood circulation in cold weather will inevitably affect the blood supply of various organs of the body, and
What disease is it easy to get with cold hands and feet?
Professor Qin Min said that if your feet are not warm, no matter how much you wear, you will feel cold, which will reduce your resistance and make you prone to colds and other respiratory diseases. In addition, cold feet directly affect the blood circulation of lower limbs, and diseases such as arthritis and varicose veins will follow over time. Some girls pay more attention to manners than temperature, which leads to cold legs and feet, pelvic inflammatory disease, dysmenorrhea, irregular menstruation and other problems. Soaking feet in autumn can not only improve human resistance, but also reduce the recurrence of various chronic diseases in winter.
Pay attention when soaking your feet.
Prevention of burns is the most important point. Soaking feet is not as hot as possible, and the water temperature should not exceed 40 in principle. For diabetic patients or chronic patients with poor foot sensation, the water temperature for soaking feet should be reduced by 5- 10.
Not for long.
Don't soak your feet too long. Generally, it is better to soak for 20-30 minutes before going to bed.
Professional configuration
You can soak your feet with clear water or salt water, or you can add specially prepared foot massage powder, which has better effect. But be careful that the inferior powder sold outside contains toxic minerals or pigments and essences harmful to the skin. It is recommended to buy powder in a regular hospital.
Wound avoidance
If there are skin diseases such as wounds, ulceration, suppuration and eczema on your feet, you can soak your feet after being cured in principle.
Special basin
In order to prevent skin diseases, it is best to use your own fixed foot bath. If many people use it, be sure to pay attention to disinfection.
