Heavy snow solar terms daily life health

After the solar term of heavy snow, the weather is getting colder and colder, the cold wind is rustling and the snow is fluttering. The northern part of China began to see a sudden drop in temperature and snowfall. What aspects should we pay attention to in our daily life when it snows heavily?

In case of heavy snow, the problem is inconvenient travel. It is easy to fall down after snow. On snowy days, the elderly are prone to fractures such as wrists and femurs, and young people are prone to soft tissue contusion. After it snows, the elderly should reduce outdoor activities, and it is best to be assisted by others when traveling. Young people should slow down when walking or cycling to avoid slipping.

Wear less clothes and sleep. After the solar term, there will be a sudden drop in temperature and snowfall. Go to bed early and get up late. Wear as little clothes as possible when sleeping at night. Wearing a small amount of clothes to sleep is helpful to rest the central nervous system and muscles and eliminate fatigue; If you wear thick clothes to sleep, it will hinder the normal "breathing" of the skin and the evaporation of sweat. The compression and friction of clothes on muscles will also affect blood circulation, leading to the decrease of body surface heat. Therefore, under the premise of ensuring room temperature, wearing less clothes is more conducive to good health.

Drinking more tea in winter, especially in the twelfth lunar month, many families have the habit of tonic, which easily leads to excessive internal heat. Drinking more tea can not only promote diuresis, gargle, dispel wind and cold, promote digestion and regulate qi, but also moisten the lungs, relieve cough and resolve phlegm. For example, tremella tea, orange tea and ginger tea are all suitable for heavy snow and solar terms.

After bathing in winter, the temperature is low and the humidity is low. Many people will feel dry and even itchy. At this time, some people will increase the number of baths, thinking that this can slow down itching, but in fact, the skin has a layer of protection. Excessive bathing will destroy it, thus making the skin lose its protective barrier. It is best to take a bath every other day or twice a week in winter. Keep warm before and after bathing. It is not advisable to use too much bath liquid, the water temperature should not be too high and the bathing time should not be too long.
