1. Respiratory diseases

Spring is a high-incidence season for respiratory diseases. During this period, the weather changes unpredictably with changes in temperature, and the elderly and children in particular have low resistance and immunity, so they can become ill with the slightest inducement. The most common diseases of the respiratory system include upper respiratory tract infection, influenza, acute tracheobronchitis, pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, cor pulmonale, etc.

Prevention: 1. Avoid crowded places; 2. Make sure to ventilate the room for at least half an hour every day and maintain a certain humidity in the room; 3. Quit smoking and drinking, change underwear frequently, keep bowel movements smooth, and ensure that you drink about 1000 ml of water every day; 4. The diet should be reasonable, such as eating a full breakfast; lunch should be nutritious, with a reasonable combination of vegetables and meat; dinner should mainly be porridge, and avoid eating too much; 5. Perform appropriate aerobic exercise to improve resistance, such as walking, practicing Tai Chi, cycling, playing gateball, table tennis, etc.; 6. Maintain a stable and optimistic attitude.

2. Pollen Allergy

For people who are allergic to pollen, the beautiful flowers in spring are like roses with thorns. Because various pollens are widely spread in spring, people will be inadvertently attacked by pollen when they go out for fun. People who are allergic to pollen will experience symptoms such as itchy eyes, nasal congestion, sneezing, runny nose, and tears. The most common seasonal rhinitis in spring is mostly related to pollen.

Prevention: People with allergies should avoid places with lush flowers and plants, or go to the hospital for powder injections. If you stay in a certain place and experience symptoms such as itchy skin, fever, cough, shortness of breath, etc., you should leave the place immediately. If the symptoms are mild, you can take desensitization drugs. If the symptoms are severe, you should go to the nearest hospital for diagnosis and treatment. To deal with allergies in spring, you can always have three types of medicine on hand, one of which is antihistamines such as Claritin. The second is the allergic reaction mediator release inhibitor. The third is glucocorticoids, but this type of hormone drugs is only for external use and should not be used for a long time.

3. Asthma

The most common allergic asthma in spring is caused by pollen. Pollen, as an irritant, can cause bronchospasm in patients with allergic asthma, leading to relapse of asthma and even endangering the patient's life.

Prevention: Take appropriate preventive measures to minimize pollen inhalation: The sun is strongest at noon and the amount of pollen released is the highest. Friends with asthma should not go out at this time, and must wear a mask when going out.

In addition, to prevent asthma attacks, you should be careful in your daily life, maintain a moderate work and rest schedule, reduce strenuous exercise; stay in a good mood; adjust your diet, choose appropriate foods, and eat more protein-rich foods. If you experience pollen allergy asthma, you should go to a relevant hospital to see a specialist for diagnosis and treatment.
