Reasons for diarrhea caused by air conditioning

With the continuous improvement of living standards, the use of air conditioners has become more and more common, and as a result, many "air-conditioning diseases" have become more and more common, diarrhea being one of them. The reason why using air conditioning causes diarrhea is because of not keeping warm and drinking cold water. The air conditioner will cool down the body, and if the stimulation of cold water is added, the abdomen and stomach will easily be irritated and cause pain, so people need to pay special attention.

1. What to do if you have diarrhea due to air conditioning?

In the summer, whether you are in the company, shopping mall, hospital, or at home, there is air conditioning. The main function of air conditioning is to lower the surrounding temperature and make people feel cool. Therefore, everyone likes to stay in air-conditioned rooms in the summer. However, some people will experience stomach pain and diarrhea. These symptoms mean that your body is weak. The air conditioner blows out cold air. If a person with good physical resistance feels cool, nothing will happen. However, if your body is weak, it is easy to catch a cold, and after catching a cold, you will experience abdominal pain and diarrhea. Generally speaking, people who experience abdominal pain and diarrhea when using air conditioning have spleen and kidney yang deficiency. Our stomach and intestines are more sensitive to temperature stimulation. When you suddenly go from a hot environment to a cold environment, the temperature difference will affect our gastrointestinal function and cause your gastrointestinal motility to speed up. People with poor health will experience gastrointestinal spasms, resulting in stomach pain and diarrhea. Some people have stronger gastrointestinal tolerance and do not experience any discomfort when using air conditioning.

2. Why do you get diarrhea when using air conditioning?

1. Keep warm. If you easily get stomachache when using air conditioning, the first step is to keep warm, especially your abdomen. It is best to put on a coat or cover yourself with a shawl. Also pay attention to keeping your feet warm. Women wearing skirts can cover their legs with a blanket.

2. Drink hot water. In the air-conditioned room, the temperature is already very low. At this time, you should not drink cold water or ice water. Drinking cold water or ice water will stimulate your stomach and intestines and aggravate your abdominal pain and diarrhea symptoms. At this time, you should drink more warm boiled water to reduce stomach and intestine irritation.

3. Drink brown sugar water. Brown sugar has the effect of warming the stomach. Drinking some brown sugar water can prevent and treat diarrhea caused by air conditioning. You can also add ginger slices to the brown sugar water.

4. Use a hot water bottle to warm the stomach and abdomen. When we get home, we can lie on the bed and put a hot water bottle on our stomach and abdomen to warm our stomach.

5. Pay attention to your diet. Eat less raw and cold food, less spicy food, and eat more fruits and vegetables.

In summer, many people like to use air conditioning. So what should you do if you get diarrhea from air conditioning? Why does using air conditioning cause diarrhea? Let’s take a look together below!

3. What diseases can you get from frequent use of air conditioning?

1. If you often use air conditioning, your body will be dehydrated, because the air in the air-conditioned room is very dry. If you don't drink water often, your skin will become very dry. So if girls stay in an air-conditioned room for a long time, they must drink a lot of water and pay attention to the maintenance of their facial skin.

2 People who often stay in air-conditioned rooms may also feel dizzy, which is a reaction caused by the so-called air-conditioning disease. When the weather is very hot in summer, the difference between the air outside and the air inside the air-conditioned room is too large. If you sweat all of a sudden and enter the air conditioner, your pores will suddenly shrink, which will cause headaches or dizziness.

3. It will also reduce the body's immunity. In the summer, the bees are particularly strong in the air-conditioned room, and the air cannot be circulated. In this way, there are a lot of bacteria, and the air quality becomes particularly poor, which can easily reduce the body's own immune function, so it will cause some bacterial infections and illnesses.
