4. The misunderstanding of sweating in summer
1 summer hair removal
Others often depilate in summer to inhibit perspiration and prevent body odor, but it leads to inflammation, rough keratinization and pigmentation of hair follicles. Excessive and frequent use of antiperspirant lotion goes against the natural laws of human body, which makes the metabolic waste of sweat glands unable to be discharged normally, and the skin is constantly stimulated, resulting in redness, itching and so on. May cause hyperthermia and even heat shock.
Wipe off immediately after sweating.
There are four ways to dissipate heat on the skin surface: radiation, conduction, convection and evaporation. Especially when the ambient temperature rises to close to or exceed the body temperature, evaporation of sweat becomes the only way to dissipate heat. When the temperature is high, the human body produces more heat, sweat glands will secrete a lot of sweat, and sweat will take away a lot of heat when it evaporates, which will play a role in cooling down. 1 ml sweat can take away 0.58 kilocalories every time it evaporates.
If you wipe it off immediately after sweating, you can't play its role of evaporation and heat dissipation; At the same time, because the heat is not distributed, sweat glands will continue to secrete sweat, and the salt and vitamins in the body will also be consumed, which is not conducive to health.
Take a bath in cold water immediately after sweating.
You can't wash with cold water immediately after sweating in summer. After sweating, the blood vessels of the skin are still in a state of expansion, and cold water is washed immediately. Stimulating the skin with cold water will make the blood vessels contract, but it will make it difficult to dissipate heat and raise the body temperature. At the same time, the sudden increase in blood flow back to the heart will increase the burden on the heart. Also, after the body enters the cold environment from the hot environment, it is too late to adapt to the adjustment, and it is often easy to catch a cold or cause gastrointestinal cramps. After sweating, muscle fatigue and tension increase. At this time, if you are stimulated by cold, it may also cause cramps.
Always turn on the air conditioner.
Many people have some misunderstandings about sweating in summer. The first thing to do is to turn on the air conditioner frequently, which will easily reduce the synthesis of heat stress protein in the body and reduce the tolerance to high temperature. Once you return to the environment where the heat wave is rolling outside, it will be difficult to adapt, and the sweat glands will fail for a long time, leading to heatstroke. People with hypertension and coronary heart disease are also prone to stroke and myocardial infarction.
