What causes a swollen face in the morning?

Many of my friends feel lazy when they wake up in the morning because they feel like they didn’t get enough sleep. This situation occurs because you went to bed too late the night before. If you go to bed at ten o'clock, you will definitely be full of energy the next day. Some friends are in a very good mood when they wake up in the morning, but after looking in the mirror they find that their faces are swollen, which definitely affects their mood. So, what causes a swollen face in the morning?

Causes of facial edema

Facial edema is a condition in which the skin contains more water than usual, leading to facial edema. So what is the cause?

1. Lack of sleep

The human body needs at least 8 hours of sleep every day, which is not only necessary to maintain normal physical strength, but also an important way to prevent facial edema.

From 11pm to around 3am the next morning is an important period for the body's internal organs to adjust and repair themselves. Only by being in a deep sleep at this time can the functions of the internal organs be better improved.

When the human body is in a state of lack of sleep, excess water and waste in the body cannot be discharged in time and will accumulate in the face, causing facial edema.

In addition, if the human body is in a state of sleep deprivation for a long time, it is easy to suffer from various diseases, among which heart disease, high blood pressure, neurasthenia, etc. are common symptoms.

If the human body is in a state of lack of sleep for a long time, it is easy to suffer from various diseases.

Therefore, you must set a regular schedule for yourself in your daily life and avoid staying up late for a long time, especially if you are a night owl.

2. Excessive coldness in the body

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "cold is the source of all diseases". For some people who have heavy coldness in their bodies, their faces are prone to edema after getting up in the morning.

Because when the dampness and coldness in the human body are heavy, it will affect the normal blood circulation and metabolism of the human body, so that excess water will be retained in the body and cannot be discharged normally. This is also an important cause of edema.

Therefore, we must do a good job of keeping warm in our daily life, including eating less cold food to prevent the external cold evil air from entering the body.

3. Premonition of disease

Although facial edema is not a disease, if facial edema persists for a long time or disappears very slowly, it should be considered as an early sign of some disease in the body.
