How can we make the elderly spend the winter healthily?

First, avoid going out too early. In winter morning, outdoor is the lowest temperature in a day, and going out is the most likely to cause colds and even cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, it is best for the elderly to choose outdoor sports after 10 am.

Second, avoid sun exposure for too long. Excessive exposure to Sun Long will damage the skin, destroy the natural barrier of the human body, make harmful chemicals and microorganisms in the atmosphere invade the human body, cause infection, and lead to decreased vision.

Third, avoid taking a bath for too long. In winter, the air is dry and cold, and many elderly people's skin is dry and itchy, which is mistaken for unclean. The more you wash your skin, the drier it gets and the more it peels off. It is recommended that the elderly take a bath once a week in winter.

Fourth, avoid excessive activity. Proper physical exercise is an important means to keep fit, prevent diseases and resist aging, but the elderly should not do strenuous exercise, so they should choose proper exercise, such as jogging and playing Tai Ji Chuan. If dizziness, headache, limb fatigue, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and loss of MUBI sleep occur after exercise, it means that the amount of exercise is too large, and attention should be paid to reducing the amount of exercise or even stopping exercise temporarily.

Fifth, avoid overheating. It is freezing in winter, and the old man is afraid of the cold. They like to lie next to each other with hot water bottles, which will cause skin erythema or burns, so as long as the room temperature reaches 18-25℃.

Sixth, avoid sleeping with your head covered. Some elderly people like to sleep with their heads covered in winter, so that the oxygen content in the bed will gradually decrease, while the exhaust gas such as carbon dioxide will gradually increase, which will affect normal breathing and even cause suffocation, or cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases due to lack of oxygen. Therefore, the correct way to sleep is: right side position, low pillow, head exposed, legs flexed and stretched.
