These days
Netizens in many places across the country
All discussing the same thing:
Flying flotsam
Many netizens said
I feel itchy through the screen!
Linzi District Center for Disease Control and Prevention reminds:
If you have allergies, please refrain from going out
Please wear a mask when you must go out
Poplar is not a flower, and catkins are not flocculent.
Poplar catkins are actually seeds produced by poplars and willow trees, these seeds are fluffy, and with the help of wind, they can be carried far away by a weak wind, so that the seeds can quickly spread to new areas in search of suitable conditions for growth. That's why we often see catkins falling all over the ground in spring.
Although the poplar catkins are beautiful, the harm to the human body is not small.
1. Skin allergies
Due to the abundance of allergens in the air in this season, catkins, pollen, dust, etc. may cause allergies, and people with allergies will have abnormal symptoms such as allergic dermatitis, urticaria, and eczema when they come into contact with catkins.
2. Respiratory problems
When catkins are inhaled into the body, it will pose a threat to our respiratory system, resulting in runny nose, cough, respiratory edema and other problems, for allergic rhinitis, asthma patients, they are more harmful, will lead to aggravation of the disease.
How to avoid the harm caused by catkins?
Ichiban
People who are sensitive to catkins should stay indoors as much as possible during the day. At noon, the air humidity is low, and the catkins are easy to float, so sensitive people try to avoid this time period when they go out, and if they want to do outdoor activities, they should also be in the time when the air humidity is high, such as morning and night. Close the screen window for indoor ventilation and turn on the air purifier if necessary.
Second defense
Prevent flocculation into the nose: Sensitive people need to wear a mask when they go out for protection, and they must completely cover the nose, mouth and chin when wearing, and keep the mask and the face tightly fitted.
Prevent flocculent into the eyes: Wear scarves, goggles, glasses, etc. when going out to reduce the chance of flying flotsam into the eyes.
Wrap yourself: People who are prone to skin allergies should try to wear long clothes and pants and hats when going out to avoid skin contact with flying flotsam.
Three cleaning
When you return after going out, you should wash your hands first, wash your nose and face at the same time, and clean the flying flakes on your coat in time. Spray water to humidify and clean indoor flying flotsam, or you can use a vacuum cleaner to clean it in time.
