As the cold air strengthens, the temperature drops.In winter, there is a high incidence of respiratory diseases. During this period, colds, lung diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchial diseases, etc. are likely to develop or become serious. Fever, runny nose, sputum expectoration, chest tightness, wheezing etc. When the above signals appear in the body, how should we defend the health of the respiratory system so that we can spend a winter with smooth breathing?
According to measurements, in a room of 10 square meters, if the doors and windows are closed, let three people read indoors at the same time. After 3 hours, the temperature in the room will rise by 1.8℃. The carbon dioxide will increase by 3 times. The amount of bacteria will increase by 2 times. The concentration of ammonia has increased by 2 times. The amount of dust has increased by nearly 9 times, and there are more than 20 other substances. Inhalation of such air for a long time can cause symptoms such as dizziness, malaise, poor sleep quality, etc., to induce or aggravate cardiopulmonary diseases such as coronary heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which is very harmful to health.
So how can we alleviate our own hypoxia and change the hypoxic environment?
In recent years, more and more people have developed a keen interest in oxygen inhalation. All human activities are almost inseparable from oxygen. Muscle contraction, brain functioning, and heart beating all rely on oxygen. The purpose of oxygen in the body is to help glucose or other fuels to oxidize and decompose the energy required for body organs and cells to perform various functions and activities. Oxygen is indeed essential to human development.
Oxygen is a substance needed by the human body, and the normal metabolism of the human body requires the participation of oxygen. For some patients, oxygen is needed to help relieve symptoms. For example, oxygen inhalationcan alleviate and prevent the occurrence of some diseases. We can buy a household oxygen concentrator, and meet the body's oxygen demand through a safe and convenient way of producing oxygen.
Oxygen inhalation can directly increase the oxygen content of arterial blood, instead of acting on a certain part of the body to indirectly change the symptoms of hypoxia, which only increasing the continuous intake of oxygen. When the human body is hypoxic or about to appear hypoxic, oxygen is used to increase the oxygen concentration of the inhaled gas, increase the oxygen content of the arterial blood, and change the oxygen supply status of the tissues, collectively referred to as oxygen therapy. Generally speaking, applying to correct pathological hypoxia, as an auxiliary means, called oxygen therapy. Among them, applying to critically ill patients and accident victims, called oxygen emergency. Applying to supplement heavy mental workers, the elderly, Physiological hypoxia of pregnant women and some severely ill patients, as well as supplementing various environmental hypoxia, is called oxygen health care as a prevention of hypoxia.
Oxygen therapy has the effect of alleviating the symptoms of hypoxia in time, but it has only a partial and gradual effect on removing the cause of hypoxia. Oxygen therapy is the main method for correcting physiological hypoxia and environmental hypoxia, and preventing and curing diseases caused by environmental hypoxia. For correcting pathological hypoxia, oxygen therapy is an important auxiliary means.
For emergency rescue, oxygen therapy is one of the important means. Therefore, if you need oxygen therapy, you should insist on a longer course of treatment and persevere. While performing oxygen therapy, we must not neglect to diagnose the cause in time. We must not neglect to take symptomatic drugs as prescribed by the doctor. We must not neglect the complications of hypoxia. We must also strengthen aerobic physical exercise to enhance our own ability to take, transport, and utilize oxygen.
