This is a fast-paced era. Since people went out in the morning, they have been chasing buses, offices and customers ... even the air is filled with the smell of rushing. This kind of life has taught many people to race against time, and catching the bus is one of them. They think taking a nap by car is a good way to catch up on sleep, which can kill two birds with one stone. However, this experience of a certain gentleman reminds everyone that this "close-fitting" way of rest is a bad living habit and will bury many hidden dangers for health.
What are the specific hazards of rear-end collision on buses?
1, suffering from cold.
Buses are public transport, and the doors are frequently opened and closed. For good ventilation, windows are usually opened, so the temperature difference inside the car changes greatly. However, after the human body enters the sleep state, the physiological function of the body declines and the ability to resist external evils is insufficient. If you sleep on the bus, you will easily catch a cold and have a headache if you are not careful. Moreover, wind-cold can invade the human body, affect local blood circulation, and cause symptoms such as muscle stiffness, spasm and pain.
2. Suffer accidental injury
People have a strong sense of self-protection when they are awake, but this sense of self-protection will be suppressed when they sleep. If you sleep on the bus, when the car turns quickly or brakes suddenly, the sleepy passengers will be accidentally injured because of the slow response at the beginning of this article.
3, cause cervical spondylosis
When people take a nap in the car, their necks tend to lean to one side, causing muscle fatigue on one side of the neck and causing "stiff neck". The stiff neck is still light. When this kind of sleep is highly uncomfortable, or when the bus bumps and shakes, it is easy to cause dislocation of cervical facet joints, which oppresses peripheral blood vessels and nerves, thus causing cervical spondylosis.
4, cause facial paralysis
The temperature difference inside the car changes greatly. When sleeping in the car, people's faces are easily stimulated by cold air, causing vasospasm of local nutrient nerves, leading to ischemia and edema of nerve tissue, and even serious facial paralysis.
5, is not conducive to eliminate fatigue.
People's sleep can be divided into two processes: "shallow sleep" and "deep sleep", which need many cycles during sleep. Only when people go through the process of "deep sleep" several times during sleep can they completely eliminate fatigue. On the bus, it is difficult for people to enter a deep sleep state because of the interference of many factors, such as car shaking, whistling, people coming and going, and so on. Not only can drowsiness and fatigue be eliminated. This kind of sleep supplement is actually an ineffective sleep, but it will affect physical and mental health.
From this point of view, it is not worth the loss to make up for sleep on the bus. However, "sleeping when sleepy" is a natural need of the human body. If you are really sleepy, you can take a proper nap on the premise of ensuring safety, but you can't get into the habit. In fact, to fundamentally prevent dozing off while driving, the most important thing is to get enough sleep every day.
Tips on healthy habits:
Usually, we should develop good habits of work and rest: arrange rest time reasonably, ensure adequate sleep, and try to avoid staying up late; Take a hot bath or soak your feet with hot water before going to bed to relieve fatigue; Drink a cup of hot milk before going to bed to relax; Exercise such as jogging or light manual labor helps you sleep.
