Millet porridge

How much do you know about millet porridge? Let me give you a detailed introduction.

Introduction of rice porridge

The continuous plum rains caused health problems for many people who use air conditioning.

Ms. Chen, 28 years old this year, is one of them. Whenever the air conditioner at her workplace is turned down a little, she feels joint pain.

"Joint diseases are not necessarily only suffered by older people. Such diseases often have a certain genetic background. Every year when we treat winter diseases in the summer, we often encounter a whole family coming for treatment," said Wang Zhanglian.

In addition to cases like Ms. Chen, Wang Zhanglian also encounters a lot of patients with respiratory diseases in his clinic. There was once a middle-aged man in his 40s who kept sneezing in the clinic. He would sneeze continuously as long as he stayed in the air-conditioned room. Later, it was found that the air conditioner in his home was used for the first time this year. Because it was not cleaned, and the weather was hot and humid a while ago, mites and other allergic sources bred in the air conditioner.

Air conditioning temperature that is too low can easily hinder blood circulation

"In addition to the health care methods of treating winter diseases in summer, I also have a few suggestions for young people who stay in air-conditioned rooms for a long time." Director Wang made some health care suggestions from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine.

First of all, do not set the air conditioner temperature too low. Although everyone's physical adaptability to the weather is different, if the air conditioner temperature is set too low, the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is too large, which can easily lead to symptoms such as heat stroke and poor blood circulation.

Secondly, you should not stay in the air-conditioned room for too long. It is best to use the air conditioner in stages and at different times. Long-term use of the air conditioner will cause the indoor air to be stagnant and stale, which is harmful to the human body.

People who often stay in air-conditioned rooms can eat more foods that strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness. For example, for breakfast, you can eat millet and red dates, which can strengthen the spleen and replenish blood. For vegetables, eat more yam, which can strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness, and papaya, which has the effect of regulating qi and soothing the stomach.

Cupping is good but don't get addicted

"Diseases like respiratory diseases, joint diseases and some allergic diseases all have a family genetic background and are relatively stubborn. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, we recommend that you adopt the method of treating winter diseases in summer and start preventive treatment before the disease breaks out." Director Wang said that July 19th, which is today, marks the beginning of the dog days of summer. Every year, the dog days of summer are a good time to treat winter diseases in summer.

Nowadays, many young people like cupping, which is indeed a means of treating winter diseases in summer. Especially since the emergence of some electronic cupping devices this year, many people even become addicted to cupping. If they do not cupping frequently, they will feel uncomfortable all over.

Director Wang suggested not to do it too frequently. Cupping is mostly done on the back, which is the main yang. Appropriate cupping can help to promote blood circulation. However, everything has a limit. If cupping is done too much, the yang will be too strong, which will cause imbalance of yin and yang in the human body and easily induce other diseases.

At present, the Provincial Acupuncture and Massage Hospital mainly has five kinds of medicines for treating winter diseases in summer: medicines for allergic diseases, medicines for painful diseases, medicines for regulating spleen and stomach system diseases, medicines to help relieve sub-health conditions such as anxiety, and micro-foaming medicines specifically for children's delicate skin.

"Treating winter diseases in summer is a very good health care method in traditional Chinese medicine. Now more than ten hospitals in Hangzhou are providing this service. You can choose according to your own situation." Director Wang said that there is a long snake moxibustion treatment method, which is very effective for some stubborn diseases.
