1, avoid greed and coldness

The temperature is high in dog days, and human pores are in an open state. Some people who are afraid of heat come home sweating profusely, immediately turn on the air conditioner to the lowest level, take off their clothes and blow against the cold wind, or take a cold shower, which will easily lead to a sudden drop in the surface temperature of the human body, the pores are closed, the blood vessels suddenly contract, and the heat in the body cannot be emitted.

In this way, not only the heat can't be distributed, but also the pores may suddenly contract, causing cold to enter the body, causing a cold and fever. So no matter how hot it is in summer, it is recommended to blow the fan and sit still for a while when you get home. It is more appropriate to take a warm bath after the heat on the body surface has almost dissipated.

2. Avoid dampness

Dog days are the hottest season in a year, and it is also a time of humidity and sultry weather. Especially in recent years, there has been a lot of precipitation in many areas. In summer, pathogenic dampness and damp-heat easily invade the human body, leading to disharmony between the spleen and stomach, loss of appetite, fatigue and weakness. You can soak your feet with 40 warm water before going to bed, which can not only dispel dampness, but also improve the quality of sleep.

3. Avoid staying up late

In fact, staying up late is a commonplace topic, but people are not encouraged to stay up late in summer, because the days are long and the nights are short in summer, and people are in an accelerated period of metabolism under high temperature. After a long time, it is easy to be short of qi and blood, so they still rest on time according to the characteristics of day and night changes in summer, and they can rest for about half an hour during lunch break to replenish their physical strength and balance their qi and blood.

4, avoid sedentary

When it is hot, people will be lazy, and they can't wait to stay in air-conditioned rooms for 24 hours, especially office workers, because they often sit for a long time at work, which may lead to leg swelling, varicose veins, cervical spondylosis and other diseases over time, and they will also suffer from air-conditioning diseases if they always blow air conditioners. Therefore, they can usually pick up a glass of water or go to the toilet every half hour and go out for a walk and exercise in the morning.
