Coughs, gastrointestinal bleeding, and strokes are common in the emergency department during the fall and winter months. In late fall, frequent visits to the cold air has made people hear the footsteps of winter. Cold air, do not eat spicy hot pot every day, because the digestive tract in the spicy food stimulation will easily put forward “protest”. Cardiovascular disease patients, during this period of time to do an eye-catching “weather station”, pay attention to the weather changes, pay attention to keep warm, in order to prevent stroke. As for the prevention of autumn dryness caused by dry cough and sore throat, it is recommended that the public can be relieved by a cup of salt water in the morning and a cup of honey water at night. “Salt water in the morning and honey soup in the evening” to alleviate the dryness of autumn, many people will find that they wake up early in the morning or speak more, their throats will be as dry as a knife cuts, around the “cough cough cough” of the dry cough sound is also more up. Autumn weather is dry, the water content in the air is reduced, the human body is particularly easy to lose water, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, people in the fall is particularly easy to feel the dryness of the evil and the occurrence of autumn dryness, manifested in the dryness of the nose and throat, a dry cough with little phlegm, dry skin, and so on. “This cough is different from summer colds, which are often just dry coughs and do not cause fever.” To relieve the body of dehydration, drink more water is one of the ways, but simply drinking plain water is not enough, you can try “a salty and a sweet” two simple methods. “Plain water is easy to lose in the body, if you add a small amount of salt to the water and drink it in small quantities, you will reduce water loss. In addition, honey has the effect of moisturizing and nourishing the lungs, and is also a ‘magic weapon’ against autumn dryness. The saying ‘Salt water in the morning, honey soup in the evening’ speaks of the way to maintain health in the fall.” Spicy hot pot people in the fall and winter to avoid stepping into the fall and winter, in the emergency room received a lot of patients with gastrointestinal bleeding. “Autumn and winter is supposed to be a high incidence of stomach problems, and the popular hot pot, especially spicy hot pot in the food is often too greasy, spicy, and people also always like to put the food ‘while it’s still hot’ into their mouths …… All of these habits can irritate the digestive tract. Coupled with the fact that people’s appetite is particularly good in the fall and winter seasons, it is easier to overeat, so the stomach and intestines can easily not stand.” Once upon a time, the “main force” of gastric disease is mostly tobacco and alcohol, irregular diet of the workplace, but recently the incidence of gastric disease has become increasingly younger trend. “A few days ago we received a 16-year-old boy, because of gastrointestinal bleeding and vomiting blood, black stools, hemoglobin only 3 grams, the condition is quite serious. He told us he usually had no stomach discomfort, but once we examined him, we found a strong gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer. As a matter of fact, the students’ work and rest should be very regular, and the rejuvenation of gastric disease is believed to have a lot to do with the pressure of study.” To prevent the digestive tract in the autumn and winter “injury”, it is recommended that the food should be based on nourishing Yin and nourishing the essence, to avoid too much stimulation of the stomach and intestines. “For example, porridge with salvia, yucca and fresh lily, or boil sugar water with fresh lily, but diabetic patients should be cautious about drinking sugar water.” It is worth reminding those who first came to the outsiders, they are used to eating spicy in Hunan, Sichuan home, to Guangdong still eat, but due to the hot and humid climate in Guangdong, coupled with the dry weather in autumn and winter, too much spicy food is very easy to fire, so many outsiders if you come to Guangdong do not abstain from spicy, it is often swollen and painful teeth and sore, inflammation of the pharynx. Hypertensive patients get up early in the cold and do not drink cold water in winter has always been the peak of the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In fact, a large proportion of patients who have a stroke in winter usually do not take blood pressure control medication on time and according to the amount. This is just like a building without a good foundation, the building will easily fall down when the wind blows. Usually do not pay attention to control blood pressure, cold air is naturally easy to “take advantage of the weakness”, so that blood vessel contraction, blood pressure rises, a stroke. Therefore, for people with high blood pressure, high blood pressure and other basic risk factors for stroke, controlling these risk factors can fundamentally reduce the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The threat to patients with cardiovascular disease from persistent cold weather is actually not as great as the threat from a sudden “change of weather”. In my experience, there is a small peak in the incidence of cardiovascular disease after the arrival of cold air. However, when the temperature stabilizes, even though it is still cold, the body has already adapted to the temperature and is less prone to develop the disease. Therefore, people with risk factors for stroke should pay special attention to the weather changes during the transition from fall to winter, and pay attention to keeping warm. In this weather, if you get up in the morning and drink a glass of cold water, it is easy to make blood vessels suddenly contract, so you should drink warm water instead. Another thing is to ‘quit smoking and limit alcohol’, don’t drink too much to keep warm just because it’s cold. Drink more soup and eat less ginger during autumn dryness During autumn dryness, you should avoid eating too much stimulating food, such as chili peppers, peppercorns, cinnamon, ginger and green onions. These foods are hot and lose a lot of water in cooking, making them easy to catch fire after eating. “Especially some people like to eat ginger to warm up, but Chinese medicine has ‘within a year, autumn does not eat ginger; within a day, night does not eat ginger’, so it is not advisable to eat more ginger.” In addition, barbecue food is supposed to be autumn dryness of the “accomplices”, but autumn is a good time for picnics, barbecues, if you really can not help but eat more mouth, you can eat some seasonal fruits to balance, such as Sydney, persimmons, grapes, sugar cane, etc., but diabetic patients should be based on their own actual situation to decide. Cantonese people daily soup, many already have the effect of clearing heat and moistening dryness, to alleviate autumn dryness is very helpful. Such as Chuanbei Snow Pear stewed rock sugar, cabbage stewed pork lungs, North and South Apricot Chuanbei stewed lean meat, etc., can be appropriate in the fall to drink more.
