People who take a bath for more than 20 minutes in winter have suffered four major injuries, and the first 1 time surprised me!

Taking a bath in winter is a very challenging thing. On the one hand, it is cold. On the other hand, now I tell you: don't be too long. The middle-aged and elderly people should not take a bath for more than 20 minutes in winter.

Bathing for more than 20 minutes (too long): harmful.

When it comes to taking a bath, you may say, "I can take it as long as I want. It's never a problem." Here we remind you with a set of data:

Japan's "Nikkei Modern" magazine reported that as many as 1.4 million people die every year in Japan due to improper bathing, of which about 90% are elderly people over 65 years old. Accidents occur most frequently in February and 10 of 65438 and 65438 every year.

According to the investigation of the American Civil Safety Committee, family accidents have become the fifth leading cause of death, among which bathroom injuries are the most common.

Although there is no similar statistical data in China, Zhao Jian, the head of the publicity center of Beijing Emergency Center, said that the relevant records from 120 bus showed sudden cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, hypoglycemia, carbon monoxide poisoning, falls, electric shock and so on. It's all accidents that happen easily in the shower.

Specifically, not paying attention to the duration of bathing will have the following consequences:

1. Skin problems

It is generally believed that bathing will make the skin full of moisture, but in fact, taking a bath for a long time will be counterproductive. The skin has a sebum film, which can prevent the skin from losing water, keep it moist and shiny, and is most afraid of frequent alkaline stimulation and high temperature injury.

In winter, the sebum membrane of human body will be obviously thinner. If you take a bath too often and use a lot of shower gel, normal keratinocytes will fall off too much, the sebum membrane will become thinner, the skin barrier will be destroyed, and dryness, itching and dandruff will occur.

2. Brain hypoxia

There is a lot of steam in the bathroom in winter, and the ventilation is not good. If the bath time is too long, it may cause brain hypoxia, and even lead to syncope, cerebral hemorrhage, angina pectoris and other symptoms.

3, dizziness, collapse, sweating

People with hypoglycemia are at great risk of taking a bath on an empty stomach. Because the blood circulation is accelerated and blood sugar consumption is increased during bathing, it is easy to cause symptoms such as dizziness, palpitation and sweating.

4, susceptible to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

When the elderly take a bath in winter, they often habitually raise the water temperature. In addition, with the passage of time, skin capillaries dilate, blood flow accelerates, and the reflex heart rate of the heart accelerates. Once the faucet is turned off, the capillaries will contract again.

This cold and hot change will constantly stimulate blood pressure and heart rate, which will easily lead to acute brain and heart ischemia in patients with hypertension, leading to acute stroke and heart disease.

When is the best time to take a bath? Experts said that the shower time should be 10~ 15 minutes, and the bathing time should be controlled within 20 minutes. Bathing frequency should not be too high. Usually three times a week is enough.

Remember one thing when taking a bath: drink water.

The absolute thing to do before taking a bath is to drink water.

One more thing: the old man is taking a bath!

Say it again: replenish water before bathing, and then wash after hydrating!

Handsome men have good skin if they take more baths. Drinking water before bathing is better than any skin care product. The blood flow of subcutaneous capillaries is smooth, and nutrients can reach the skin. After spending a lot of money on skin care products, why not have a glass of water? Oh, my brain and skin are dehydrated, hehe, drink!

Some people say that eight glasses of water a day, how big is it? A wine glass? A teacup? Or a tea urn? According to the weight, in addition to food, each kilogram of body weight should be supplemented with 20ml to 40ml, at least 20ml, and the exercise intensity should be above 40ml. A 50 kg person should drink at least two bottles of mineral water every day. This does not include drinking water before bathing.

Remember: in order to prevent stroke, the elderly must drink water before taking a bath, especially in winter, especially during the Spring Festival. The change of seasons itself requires human body adjustment. The temperature difference is large, the water temperature is high, excitement leads to fatigue during festivals, and drinking alcohol leads to dehydration in the body. It is quite dangerous to take a bath without drinking water. Old people are prone to stroke.

Be sure to tell the old people at home and friends of the same age to drink some water before taking a bath! Especially in winter! Avoid many tragedies!

Try not to w

It is not advisable to take a bath after drinking. When taking a bath, the human body sweats, and the alcohol concentration in the blood is relatively high. Coupled with hot water to promote blood circulation and speed up pulse beating, it often leads to a drop in blood pressure and an increase in blood viscosity, leading to cardiovascular diseases.

The best way to take a bath: rubbing.

Rubbing is a popular saying in the last century, but this kind of bathing can help us prolong our life and achieve benefits that neither bathing nor bathing can achieve.

Back rubbing: promoting detoxification

Behind it is the place where the eight strange meridians pass. Rubbing the back is not only for cleaning, but also for strengthening the circulation of blood and lymph, effectively stimulating the meridians of the large intestine, helping to expel toxins from the body, helping to coordinate the functions of various internal organs and balancing yin and yang. This has a good health care function, promoting health and prolonging life.

If you can't rub your back, you can rub it with a towel and a long arm brush.

Wipe the scalp: anti-aging and clear.

Scalp is a very important part of human body, with many acupoints and nerves. Rubbing the scalp regularly can not only stimulate capillaries and promote blood circulation, but also relieve presbyopia and gray hair, help the brain get more oxygen to nourish and make people clear-headed.

The method of wiping the scalp is also very simple, that is, pointing your finger at the abdomen, wiping it from front to back, and wiping it from front to back on both sides. When you wash your hair, you also massage our heads.

Knee friction: leg protection

There are few blood vessels in the knee, which is the most used joint in our body and the most vulnerable joint. Many people don't pay attention to protection, and problems begin to appear in their thirties. However, if we can rub it with hot water in the bath from now on, we can help avoid knee pain.

The rubbing method is simple. Just rub it along the kneecap and put your hand on the kneecap, so you won't feel cold. Be careful. Wipe the back of your knees.
