4hw.org: Recently, the high temperature mode has been opened nationwide, which makes many African people in China unable to accept it. They shout to go back to Africa for summer vacation. Recently, an African man, 35 years old, blew the air conditioner for a whole night after exposure to the sun, and it turned out to be facial paralysis. What's the matter? What's the harm of blowing the air conditioner? Let's have a look with Xiaobian!
After the hot summer mode was opened in Hunan, most of the citizens were too hot to bear. They could not wait to hold the air conditioner day and night and put themselves into the refrigerator, including African friends. Jones, a 35 year old African man, was exposed to the sun during the day and blew the air conditioner as soon as he went back to the hotel at night.
On the morning of July 18, Jones from Africa was cooperating with doctors in the acupuncture rehabilitation department of a hospital in Changsha. A few days ago, he came to China for the first time. Because the weather was too hot, he was not satisfied with the local conditions. He blew directly at the air conditioner in the hotel, resulting in facial paralysis.
Jones, 35, is an agronomist from Liberia, Africa. Jones said that in their country, the rice harvest basically depends on the weather. This time, he came to China to learn from Academician Yuan Longping's rice planting technology. On May 9, Jones came to Hunan with his partner.
Recently, taking advantage of his spare time, he went to Zhangjiajie. 'it's hot during the day, so when you get back to the hotel, you blow the air conditioner. 'Jones said that the air temperature was turned down to the air outlet and the air conditioner was turned on at night. He didn't feel anything unusual until the fifth day, when he was visiting the scenic spot, he suddenly felt his eyes uncomfortable.

Soon afterwards, Jones found that his right side of his face was stiff except for his eyes, and it was difficult to chew when eating. Jones immediately came to the acupuncture rehabilitation department of the East Hospital of Changsha traditional Chinese medicine hospital (Changsha eighth hospital). At that time, his half face was completely stiff, the corners of his mouth were askew, and he had been drooling.
After examination, Jones was diagnosed with facial neuritis, which may be caused by too tired playing, decreased body resistance, and hot weather and direct air conditioning. Gao Zhiying, the head of the Department, communicated with Jones in fluent English and gave him acupuncture treatment. The doctor reminded the public not to blow directly into the air conditioner at home.
What diseases are easy to get by blowing air conditioner for a long time
rhinallergosis
As soon as some people enter the air-conditioned room, they will have symptoms such as nasal congestion and runny nose. Taking cold medicine will not work. It may be allergic rhinitis. The reason is that the air-conditioner will stimulate the peripheral nerves in the nasal cavity, resulting in the rapid contraction of the nasal mucosa, the increase of gland secretion, and then the rhinitis symptoms such as runny nose and sneezing. In addition, some people are allergic to dust and dust mites blown out by the air conditioner, thus inducing allergic rhinitis.

Dysmenorrhea and menstrual disorder
Generally in public places or business office buildings, there are many people in and out, and the air temperature is generally low. In summer, women often wear short skirts and sandals to go to work. In this way, long-term cold stimulation may affect ovarian function, cause ovulation disorders, and lead to menstrual disorders. Or suddenly from the hot outdoor into the low temperature indoor, so that the body temperature difference is too large, the peripheral blood vessels can not contract quickly, resulting in poor peripheral blood circulation, in the long run, abdominal pain and dysmenorrhea are easy to occur.
Upper respiratory diseases
The respiratory tract is also very fragile under the effect of air conditioning. Once the air conditioner breaks through the fragile 'defense line' of the respiratory tract, the symptoms of coughing, sneezing, runny nose and other colds will appear, i.e. upper respiratory tract diseases, and the severe ones will cause pneumonia and other serious lower respiratory diseases. If it is not treated in time, it will be life-threatening.
Knee joint disease
Long term in the air-conditioned room is also easy to cause 'air conditioning legs'. Because when the legs and knees are exposed to low temperature for a long time, the vasoconstriction of the legs will be affected, which will induce knee joint diseases such as synovitis and bursitis.

Cervical spondylopathy
Cervical spondylosis has a lot to do with cold. In summer, in the office, especially when the seat is facing the air conditioner, the muscles of the back of the neck are easy to suffer from cold. Over a long period of time, it is easy to cause muscle spasm, pain, vasoconstriction, blood circulation disorder, and induce or aggravate cervical spondylosis.
Infantile asthma
In hot summer, the excessive temperature difference between indoor and outdoor will make the babies with low immunity suddenly attacked by cold air, which will cause bronchoreflex spasm, cough and asthma. If the air conditioner is not cleaned in time, the dust and mites in the air conditioner will easily lead to children's coughing and even induce asthma.
