What to do if you drink the water from the swimming pool

As we all know, many swimming pools are very dirty. And the water in the swimming pool is not drinkable.

So, what should we do if we accidentally drink swimming pool water while swimming? In fact, generally speaking, if we don’t feel any discomfort, we don’t need to worry about it.

It is best to eat something that can cleanse the stomach and intestines. For example, fruits. Drinking water after swimming is a must for every swimmer.

If you have stomach pain after drinking too much swimming water, taking Zhengchang Pills is usually effective.

For mild diarrhea, reduce food intake and preferably fast for a few meals to alleviate the symptoms. In addition, you may try diet therapy. You may drink some yogurt to replace the big fish and meat on the table. The effect is also good. Hawthorn and apple are also okay.

If the situation is still serious, take some medicine.

It depends on what kind of swimming pool it is. If it is a paid swimming pool, please do not drink too much. In order to maintain the quality of swimming pool water, managers often add a lot of NaClO (commonly known as bleaching powder) into the pool, causing the chlorine content in the swimming pool water to exceed the standard. If you frequently inject too much chloride ions, it can easily lead to some diseases such as high blood pressure.

If it is river water, it is easy to carry some pathogens and parasites. Drinking a lot may not show symptoms immediately, but it is likely to cause chronic diseases.

Most people choose to go swimming in the summer, especially parents with children are willing to take their children to play in the water. But you may not notice that many children accidentally drink water from the swimming pool, and you may think it's no big deal.

Generally speaking, if swimming pool water is not disinfected, it will easily breed bacteria and algae, and the water will need to be changed frequently. However, most swimming pools in my country currently use chlorine-containing compounds to disinfect to keep the water clean.

So, why is swimming pool water harmful to people? It turns out that when chlorine compounds are added to water, chlorine is very effective in destroying various water-borne bacteria and viruses, even to a certain extent, and it is widely believed that it can eliminate diseases such as typhoid and cholera that once swept through developed countries.

The chlorine content in our drinking water is very safe and fully complies with the standards recommended by the World Health Organization. However, in swimming pools, the chlorine used to purify pool water far exceeds this standard by 2-5 times, and this is when problems arise.

The consequences include asthma, damage to hair, eyes, tooth enamel, and other complications. It is recommended that all parents must pay attention to their children.
