As the high temperature persists, be alert to these high-incidence diseases!

Recently, Henan has been experiencing a high temperature weather, with the highest temperature in most parts of the province generally between 36 and 39 degrees Celsius. What impact will the continued high temperature weather have on physical health? How can we prevent it scientifically and effectively?

"Due to the recent high temperatures, the number of patients suffering from heat stroke coming to the hospital for treatment has increased significantly." Sun Junhua, chief physician of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at Zhengzhou No. 7 Hospital, suggested in an interview with a reporter from Dahe.com that when the weather is hot, we must do a good job of preventing and responding to high-incidence diseases in advance.

Sun Junhua told reporters that heatstroke can be divided into premonitory heatstroke, mild heatstroke and severe heatstroke. "It is usually caused by long-term exposure to high temperatures, which leads to heat dissipation dysfunction. Typical symptoms include sweating, weakness in the limbs, dizziness, fever, nausea and vomiting. At this time, patients can take drugs such as Huoxiang Zhengqi Water and Shidi Shui for treatment under the guidance of a doctor," said Sun Junhua.

Heat stroke is the most serious stage of heat stroke. "It is usually caused by prolonged exposure to high temperature or strenuous exercise, and may cause a series of symptoms such as convulsions, coma and sweating." Sun Junhua said that if similar situations occur, you should go to the emergency department of a regular hospital for treatment.

"Heat rash is also a disease that is easily caused in hot weather. It is usually caused by excessive sweat in hot weather. After the onset of the disease, small raised blisters, papules or papulovesicles will appear on the skin, accompanied by itching and stinging." Sun Junhua said that at this time, you can use anti-itching ointments under the guidance of a doctor for treatment, such as calamine lotion, prickly heat powder, etc.

Sun Junhua told reporters that in addition, under high temperatures, the blood vessels on the human body continue to expand, blood gathers on the body surface, the heart and brain are not supplied with enough blood, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular patients are prone to sudden illness. When entering an air-conditioned room from outside, the temperature drops suddenly, blood vessels contract, and blood pressure may rise, thus aggravating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Sun Junhua reminded that people should try to reduce outdoor activities in hot weather. They should pay attention to timely replenishment of water, eat a light diet, reduce the intake of high-oil and high-fat foods, and eat more fruits, vegetables, and foods rich in nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and calcium. In hot weather, special attention should be paid to food hygiene and whether the food is spoiled, so as to prevent harmful microorganisms from destroying the balance of gastrointestinal flora and causing gastrointestinal diseases.
