Tip 1: Ginger juice and ginger sugar can prevent motion sickness and seasickness.
Symptoms of motion sickness and seasickness include dizziness, fatigue and nausea.
Even vomiting. The reason is that the inner ear semicircular canal's perception of speed is inconsistent with the information received by vision, so if you can look out of the window in a car or boat, your vision will be wide, which will be very helpful to relieve symptoms. According to foreign preliminary research, taking fresh ginger juice before departure or carsickness may have a good preventive effect on carsickness. If it is inconvenient to prepare ginger juice, ginger sugar is also a good choice.
In terms of diet, we should avoid too much liquid, especially carbonated drinks, alcohol and greasy food, so as not to increase satiety and deepen nausea. If the dizziness symptoms have been very serious and cannot be relieved by the above methods alone, you can ask a doctor to prescribe anti-dizziness drugs, which have obvious effects, but there will be side effects such as drowsiness and dry mouth. You should be mentally prepared before taking them.
Tip 2: Adjust the biological clock three days before departure.
Jet lag is another common annoying problem. When people arrive at their destination, jet lag often leads to headache, drowsiness, inability to concentrate, and even decreased immunity, which is easy to cause virus or bacterial infection. On the one hand, flying over the time zone disrupts the physiological clock, on the other hand, the cabin pressure is lower than the normal environment, and the air is thin and dry, causing physiological discomfort.
It is best to start adjusting the biological clock three days before departure; Flying east means going to bed an hour early every night, while flying west means the opposite. A few days before departure, you should keep moderate exercise and get enough sleep, mainly with starch, carbohydrates and vegetables. Earplugs, eye patches and headrests can be used to help you sleep on the plane. Parents who take their children out to play don't have to worry about the physiological clock of children under three years old, because their physiological adjustment mechanism is not fixed, but more flexible than adults.
Tip 3: Add 250 ml of water every hour by plane.
Because the air on the plane is dry, it is very important to replenish water, but coffee, tea, wine, juice, etc. supplied on the plane should be avoided. Water is the best choice, and it is best to add about 250 ml of water every hour. During a long flight, you must get up and walk every once in a while, stretch your legs, promote blood circulation and reduce the risk of thrombosis.
In addition, remind people who have chronic diseases and take medicine for a long time to take more medicine when they go out, so as to avoid the dilemma of having no medicine to eat after a slight delay in the journey. Patients with diabetes and hypertension should carry a medical card with them, indicating the diagnosis, dosage and contact number in case of emergency. In case of emergency. However, it is not recommended to use sleeping pills on the plane, because it will aggravate the possibility of thrombosis and make the mucosa drier and dehydrated.
Tip 4: You must stand up and walk more when flying long distances.
There are still many people who will pay attention to the "economy class syndrome" that may occur in long-distance flights. This means that if the blood clot formed by deep vein thrombosis reaches the lungs or other important organs, it may lead to stroke or death. The reason is often due to long-term leg curl, poor blood circulation, leading to thrombosis. Flying, especially flying for more than 5 hours, is particularly prone to such problems. Researchers at Avicennes Hospital in Baubigny analyzed the data of millions of passengers who landed at Charles de Gaulle Airport from 1993 to 2000, and found that the longer the flight time, the greater the risk of thrombosis.
Fortunately, in normal people, the incidence of serious complications is not high, but people with varicose veins, thrombosis, obesity, smoking, pregnant women, oral contraceptives and female hormones are at higher risk. Preventive measures include getting up regularly, walking around or doing some gentle physical activities such as bending your knees, stretching your legs, moving your ankles, changing your sitting posture frequently and replenishing more water. For high-risk groups, it is helpful to take aspirin before boarding the plane.
Tip 5: wear "invisible" foot disinfection to follow up.
At present, on average, 1 person in every five glasses families wears contact lenses. It is worth noting that due to the direct contact between eyeball and contact lens, the maintenance and cleaning of glasses should not be sloppy. What's more, there are secretions on the surface of the eyeball, and these secretions containing protein will accumulate on the lens. In addition, if the cleaning process of the lens is polluted by the outside world and then attached to the eyes, it is easy to breed bacteria, causing eye infection, keratitis and corneal ulcer.
During holidays, if you wear contact lenses to travel far, you must ensure its "purity". In the past, contact lens care was too complicated, but Alcon's quick-acting sterilization comprehensive care solution is simplifying our lives. It changes the traditional contact lens care mode that needs rubbing, and can achieve the purpose of effective cleaning and sterilization as long as it is soaked. This nursing solution adopts triple cleaning formula, and citrate can directly remove protein deposits on glasses; AMP-95 can form a non-stick layer similar to a non-stick pan on the mirror surface, so as to prevent the formation of protein precipitate or make it easy to wash off. TETRONIC has a strong scavenging effect on lipid deposition. Traveling with this nursing solution, "invisible" people will not have invisible problems.
Tip 6: prepare a small medicine box when traveling.
People with travel experience always make a list before going out. The health care doctor reminded the "Eleventh" crowd that you must not bring a small medicine box when you go out. In addition to carrying special drugs according to medical history, you should also carry the following basic drugs:
1, cold medicine: Ganmao Qingre Granule and Ling Gan Yang Ganmao Tablet; Aspirin and ibuprofen; Chlorpheniramine and others.
2, indigestion: lactase; Bao Wanhe and hawthorn pill; Domperidone and so on.
3. Diarrhea: berberine tablets, Baoji pills, Huoxiang Zhengqi soft capsules, whole intestines, etc.
4. Motion sickness: sedative, hypnotic and anticholinergic drugs. Used for dizziness, vomiting and other symptoms caused by riding horses, boats, airplanes and other sports.
5, get angry: Niuhuang Jiedu Pill or Huanglian Shangqing Pill, used for sore throat, swollen gums, tinnitus, aphtha, constipation and so on.
6. Other essential drugs include: band-aid for accidental injury; Cool oil, used to deal with mosquito bites and dizziness; Eye drops, used after swimming or soaking in hot springs, or when gray sand enters the eyes; Collateral oil is used for traumatic injury and rheumatic bone pain.
7. It is also necessary to prepare targeted drugs according to the time and content of the trip: to go to Rendan in summer, you should prepare drugs to deal with heatstroke, and to go to the north in winter to prepare drugs to prevent frostbite.
Tip 7: Eat less raw and uncooked food.
When you arrive at a tourist attraction, you should take good care of your stomach so as not to ruin your trip abroad. According to statistics, 20% to 50% of overseas tourists have had diarrhea. Therefore, gastroenterologists remind that when traveling, you should avoid eating unheated or cold food and pay attention to hygiene, so that you can go out happily and play safely.
With the increasing popularity of Chinese people traveling abroad, there are more and more patients with "tourist gastrointestinal diseases". According to foreign statistics, tropical areas are high incidence areas of tourism diarrhea, with Africa, Southeast Asia and Central and South America accounting for 40%. Experts believe that 75% of tourists' diarrhea is caused by bacterial infection, and the most common infection is Escherichia coli, which mainly occurs in Southeast Asia. When traveling to Central and South America, you must be careful to prevent acute viral diarrhea; However, some patients' gastrointestinal symptoms are non-infectious, which are caused by eating food that they have never tried, or being nervous, not adapting to going out or being acclimatized.
Tourism diarrhea appears on average five days after arriving at the destination. For those with mild symptoms, add one spoonful of salt or four spoonfuls of sugar to supplement water and electrolyte. You can also buy some rehydration salts at the drugstore before you leave, and you can take them when you need them.
Doctors suggest that you should avoid eating cold, unclean or unfamiliar food when traveling; Patients with irritable bowel syndrome should ask a doctor to prescribe some antidiarrheal drugs to carry with them. In addition, pay close attention to the epidemic situation at the destination before traveling, and vaccinate or take medicine as appropriate.
