Watch out for lung health | Winter hypoxia syndrome
Winter hypoxia syndrome
When it comes to winter, do you feel tired and low energy? Even in the morning, there is always a feeling that you can't wake up? At the same time, many people will also have breathing difficulties, increased number of colds, lethargy, slow reaction and other phenomena.
In fact, the above situations are due to the temperature decrease, greatly increasing the time people stay in the closed space, when the oxygen supply is insufficient, it will lead to hypoxia, this phenomenon is often called: winter hypoxia syndrome.
If the lack of oxygen for too long, the body's immunity decreased, the human body may appear a series of diseases. So how do we self-test and prevent "winter hypoxia syndrome"?
"Winter hypoxia" symptoms self-test
Central nervous system symptoms such as dizziness, headache, lethargy, lethargy, fatigue and lethargy;
Respiratory symptoms: chest discomfort, dyspnea, throat itching and cough;
Circulatory system symptoms: such as palpitations, discomfort, rapid heartbeat, or slow heartbeat;
Symptoms of poor peripheral circulation: such as cyanosis of the mouth and lips, warm limbs, pale face, easy to get frostbite, etc.
Digestive symptoms: such as loss of appetite, tasteless mouth, abdominal distension and constipation.
In addition, some people may have symptoms such as decreased immunity, increased number of colds and difficult recovery due to hypoxia; The symptoms of original heart and lung diseases can be aggravated by "winter hypoxia". If carbon monoxide poisoning is caused by heating a fire (such as coal fire, charcoal fire or wood fire), there may be flushed face, cherry red lips, coma and respiratory and circulatory failure.
Winter hypoxia how to do?
1) Open the window for ventilation in time
According to the test, the oxygen concentration is usually about 21% in the place with good oxygen, and after a night's sleep in the closed bedroom, the oxygen concentration will drop to 17%-19%, or even lower.
Therefore, window ventilation is the most convenient way to prevent "winter hypoxia syndrome". Therefore, once people who work and study indoors have the clinical symptoms of "winter hypoxia", they should immediately open the Windows and doors for ventilation.
2) Deep breathing
Open the window to ventilate at the same time can be combined with deep breathing to exhale the accumulated carbon dioxide in the body and inhale fresh air (oxygen).
In the process of deep breathing, the whole body needs to relax and breathe calmly. Breathe in as slowly and deeply as possible, while raising your chest to ensure that your lungs are getting enough oxygen.
3) Outdoor activities
If you are in a relatively closed office and study environment for a long time, it is best to go to the air circulation or outdoor activities at regular intervals.
4) Home oxygen equipment
If there is a simple oxygen bag at home, or a household oxygen generator, you can quickly absorb oxygen to relieve hypoxia symptoms. However, it should be noted that the oxygen concentration should not be too high, the time should not be too long, and the use can be stopped when the symptoms are relieved, so as to avoid excessive oxygen supply or high concentration oxygen inhalation, resulting in relatively insufficient carbon dioxide in the body, thereby losing the stimulation of the respiratory center, resulting in respiratory depression.
Oxygen is the vital life element of the human body, and hypoxia will inevitably affect the health of the whole body. In order to ensure sufficient "oxygen content" in the body, many chronic patients and health enthusiasts will choose MTEHMYAF portable oxygen generator.
1, the use of ergonomic structure design, lightweight and portable at the same time to support a key enabled, direct oxygen and pulse oxygen adjustment selection, to meet the needs of different groups of oxygen production.
2, not only can continuously and stably provide filtered pure oxygen, but also has a super-sensitive breath detection safety function.
* When using oxygen generator products, please read the product instructions carefully, and the forbidden contents or precautions are detailed in the instructions.
