figure skaters who work on the ice for a long time and wear thin clothes will have the following effects on their health. The first and most direct effect is that they are easy to catch cold and then catch a cold. The second effect is that all joints and muscle tissues in the human body are exposed to low temperature for a long time, which will induce arthritis and muscle pain, which is what we often call old cold legs and other diseases. The third biggest influence is that wind, cold and moisture invade the zang-fu organs, which will cause many chronic diseases, such as stomach pain and indigestion.

? This year's Winter Olympics was held in Beijing, and China athletes achieved impressive results. At the same time, whether engaging in ice and snow sports will have an impact on athletes' health has also been noticed by everyone. The impact is definitely influential. Take me for example, I am from Chongqing. In 1997, I went to the northern city of Luoyang, which was in September of the lunar calendar. At this time in September of the lunar calendar, it was still hot in Chongqing, and I still felt hot at home. But as soon as I arrived in Luoyang, it was as cold as entering the Antarctic. I immediately caught two cotton-padded clothes and put them on, but I was still shivering with cold. I remember that the temperature in Luoyang was MINUS ten degrees. I stayed in Luoyang until the Spring Festival before I returned to Chongqing. It was just a few months, which made me suffer from arthritis. In other words, after I returned to Chongqing, my knee was swollen within two months, and my gums had two sores, that is, something like a blister, which would fester inside, which was chronic. After you treated it, it grew back ten days later.
Because of the experience of living in northern cities, I got arthritis in my knees and sores in my gums. After I came back, I taught myself Chinese medicine. At that time, I bought a lot of books, such as Self-taught Books for Rural Doctors, Internal Classic of the Emperor, Compendium of Materia Medica, Golden Mirror of Medical Cases, and some other related books. After more than ten years of study, I finally figured out why the human body can cause chronic diseases in a low temperature environment.
according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, because the human body relies on yang to resist the invasion of exogenous pathogens, and the wind in cold environment is positive, so the wind and the yang of the human body feel the same, so the theory of typhoid miscellaneous diseases says that the wind belongs to yang and is the strong point of all diseases. Wind-cold, rheumatism and wind-heat all enter the human body with the help of the yang of the wind. That is why we say that spring health needs to be covered, and we can't blow the spring breeze. It is because the wind is mixed with cold and wet gas, and once it enters the human body, it will get sick.
Long-term effects on the body in low temperature environment
First, it is easy to catch a cold
Flower skaters work on the ice for a long time, and their clothes are thin, so they are easy to catch a cold if they are not careful. After all, athletes are flesh and blood, not iron machines. Although they are strong, they are still vulnerable to cold and other diseases.
Second, the impact on facial organs
The human body is in a low temperature environment for a long time, which has a great impact on facial organs, such as eyes and nose. If the eyes are kept in a low temperature environment for too long, the conjunctiva will be easily inflamed, and the nose will easily have an allergic reaction to the low temperature environment, resulting in a stuffy nose and runny nose, which is relatively direct. Many people have cold eyes when they are young, and when they get old, their eyes will be red and swollen and shed tears in the wind, and their vision will be impaired.
Third, the impact on joint muscles. In fact, I don't say that everyone understands this problem, and many people have experienced it personally. Because shoulder joints and knee joints are cold, they suffer from arthritis, and some people even can't walk, so long-term exposure to low temperature has a great impact on joints and muscles. It is easy to stand out when you get old, which is what we often call old cold legs and other diseases.
IV. Influence on Zang-fu Organs
When cold enters into Zang-fu organs, many chronic diseases will occur. The most well-known ones are stomach pains and digestive system problems in the stomach. As for other zang-fu organs, the liver and kidney are also the most influential, which will gradually show up after getting old. The liver begins to understand the eyes and mainly governs the tendons in the body. Therefore, when the liver is cold, leg cramps often occur in old age, that is, we often say that the foot bar turns to the tendons and the tendons hurt. The kidney hides in the ear, which mainly governs the bones of the human body. Therefore, after the kidney hides in the cold, it will directly lead to hearing loss and ear problems, as well as bone pain after getting old. The viscera and organs that the human body is most vulnerable to cold are the lungs. Once the lungs are cold, they will have the problem of coughing. Some elderly people cough all day long because the lungs are cold.
In 2111, I worked night shift in winter, and my kidney was cold. As a result, my hearing in my left ear decreased. It felt as if something had suddenly blocked my left ear, and it seemed that something was pressing on my ear, which lasted for a long time. Until later, I used a lot of Chinese medicines to drive away the cold, combined with dietotherapy, to drive away the cold. Suddenly one day, my ear was full of blood, and Huo Ran was cheerful, and the weight pressed on my ear was uncovered. Flower skaters work on the ice for a long time, and their clothes are thin, which will have a great impact on their health. The first impact is that they are prone to catch a cold, and the second impact is that their eyes and nose are prone to allergic reactions to cold temperatures. Inflammation of the conjunctiva leads to red eyes and tears, decreased vision and allergic reactions of the nose, and nasal congestion and runny nose. The third effect is on joints and muscle tissue. Arthritis and muscle pain will occur after getting old. The fourth effect is on the viscera and organs.
