What Should You Pay Attention To If Your Child Has Chickenpox? Prevention And Treatment Measures Of Chickenpox In Kindergartens And Incidence In Adults
Winter and spring alternate, beware of chickenpox "sneak attacks" and use scientific conditioning to build a solid health defense line
Last week, there was news about a kindergarten teacher in Xiaoshan. This teacher was “contracted” because he took care of students with chickenpox. This news sounded the alarm for us. Many people think that chickenpox is a unique condition for children. However, in fact, if adults are in a situation where they are easily tired and nervous for a long time, the chickenpox that was originally hidden quietly in the body will not show up – The herpes zoster virus is very likely to start causing trouble when the owner is weak, thereby causing shingles. It is also commonly known as the "tangled dragon", and the accompanying nerve pain is usually much more severe than the pain caused by chickenpox in childhood. This has sounded the alarm for us. The daily health care work and the maintenance effect of immunity are of extremely critical importance in resisting the invasion of various viruses. Next, from the perspective of professional health management, we will carefully sort out a comprehensive set of scientific conditioning plans for you.
Regular work and rest to build an immune "biological clock"
A stable biological clock is the basis for immunity. Staying up late and not getting enough sleep will directly lead to a decline in the function of immune cells, which will give the virus an opportunity. It is recommended to go to sleep before 23:00 every night to ensure 7 to 8 hours of high-quality sleep. One hour before going to bed, stay away from electronic screens such as mobile phones, because the blue light they emit will inhibit the secretion of a substance called melatonin, thereby interfering with sleep rhythm. Creating a dark, quiet sleep environment can help put the body into a deep state of repair, thereby strengthening the "line of defense" of a system called the immune system.
Take the initiative to rest and resolve the accumulation of “fatigue”
Don’t wait until you feel that you are extremely tired, as if you are about to collapse, before you go to rest, because being fatigued for a long time is extremely detrimental to improving immunity. It will interfere with nerve and endocrine regulation and cause disorders. For example, during the break between work, take a deep breath for 5 minutes, look into the distance, or take a 20-minute nap at noon. These are all ways of learning to "actively rest". They can effectively reduce cortisol levels, relieve mental stress, and free the body from the constant "fighting" state, thereby preventing viruses from taking advantage of the situation.
Relieve shoulders and neck, open up the "crossroads" of Qi and blood
"Fatigue and stiffness in the cervical spine area will affect the blood supply to the brain, further causing dizziness and slowing down the metabolic rate. Every day, you can do 'meter' exercises; the specific method is to use your head to slowly write the word 'meter' to stretch and relax the neck muscles. In addition, you should also perform movements such as shrugging and circling the shoulders to relieve fatigue in the shoulders and promote blood circulation in the upper body."
Protect eyes and moisturize eyes, resist "screen" wear and tear
The "windows of the soul" are the eyes, which are also a major consumer. What I am talking about here is not a major consumer of fat, but a major consumer of qi and blood. Using the eyes for a long time will not only cause dryness of the eyes, but also cause blurred vision. Not only that, it will also consume a lot of liver blood. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the liver opens to the eyes. Insufficient liver blood will undoubtedly have an impact on the metabolism and detoxification functions that are closely related to the whole body. Here’s a suggestion to follow the “20-20-20” rule: Every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Applying hot compress to the eyes is also a good way to relax, which can promote blood circulation around the eyes and relieve eye fatigue.
Balance your diet and activate your inner “detoxification” power
Health is based on the material basis of diet. There is no need to blindly supplement. The key is to achieve a balanced state. Eat more foods rich in high-quality protein, such as milk, eggs, lean meat, etc., which are the raw materials needed to synthesize immune cells. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to supplement vitamins and antioxidants . It is recommended that fruits rich in vitamin C, such as kiwi and citrus, as well as mushrooms, such as shiitake mushrooms and fungus, can help enhance the recognition and elimination capabilities of the immune system. Honeysuckle and coptis decoction can be consumed in moderation, but it must be carried out under professional guidance. It is mainly used as an auxiliary means for daily "health care" that is specially marked as "health care".
Scientific exercise improves “metabolism” and vitality
Moderate exercise is an effective way to increase metabolic rate and enhance immunity. However, care must be taken to avoid temporary immunosuppression due to excessive exercise. It is recommended to carry out moderate-intensity aerobic exercise, such as fast walking, jogging, yoga training or baduanjin, 3 to 5 times a week, each time lasting more than 30 minutes.
Relax efficiently and start the "self-healing" process of body and mind
Ten minutes of practice every day can effectively reduce stress hormones, activate the parasympathetic nerves, and push the body into a deep state of relaxation and repair. This state can strengthen immunity and resist various health threats, including the chickenpox-zoster virus.
With the above-mentioned scientific and systematic daily conditioning methods, we can not only effectively deal with the health challenges caused by seasonal changes, but also consolidate the so-called immune foundation from the root, and then enjoy life with more energy.
