My nose itches when I use the air conditioner

It is summer now, and air conditioners are basically turned on indoors. It is difficult for people to sleep normally without turning on the air conditioner, so many people turn on the air conditioner every time. However, if the air conditioner is turned on for too long, the nose will feel itchy, dry and hard. This is a nasopharyngeal disease, which is also an air-conditioning disease. Because the air conditioner draws away all the moisture, it will cause the indoor dryness and this symptom.

What should I do if my nose becomes dry when using air conditioning in summer? 1 What to do if your nose becomes dry when using air conditioning in summer: Understand the reason. Turning on the air conditioner all the time in summer will cause the moisture in the room to gradually decrease. In addition, doors and windows are usually closed when turning on the air conditioner, resulting in poor air circulation, and the air will become increasingly drier. We breathe through our noses. Over time, if the indoor humidity is too low and the body lacks water, it will cause the nose to become dry. If it is not relieved in time, it will soon develop into rhinitis and lead to a cold.

2 What to do if your nose becomes dry when using air conditioning in summer : Pinch the Yintang acupoint. The Yintang acupoint is located on the face, at the midpoint of the line connecting the two eyebrows. Use your bent thumb and index finger to gently pinch the Yintang acupoint and rub it gently and slowly until you feel numbness and swelling in the area. Generally, knead for 2 minutes. Clearing the head and improving eyesight, unblocking the nose and opening the orifices, pulling the Yintang acupoint can increase the proliferation ability of the nasal mucosal epithelial cells, promote mucus secretion, keep the nasal cavity moist, and stimulate the olfactory cells to make the sense of smell more sensitive, thus preventing colds and respiratory diseases.

3 What to do if your nose becomes dry when using air conditioning in summer: Drink water in small sips. It is best to drink water in small sips, small amounts and multiple times. Do not drink too large gulps at one time, otherwise the body will not be able to absorb it effectively. Drinking too many gulps of water is like a sudden heavy rain. Especially for people with poor circulation and blocked meridians, it can cause local "flooding" in the body, also known as edema.
