1, the harm of bare ankles
In life, many young people have a habit of wearing clothes, which looks particularly fashionable:
Wear thick clothes on the top and short clothes on the bottom, especially the ankles are often exposed, sometimes pants, and the trouser legs have to be rolled up to reveal an ankle.
Many girls think that exposing their ankles is a fashion, which can not only show the length of their legs, but also have a sense of bone. Coupled with the fact that many stars often dress like this, "bare ankles" have become a symbol of "fashion"! Even some men rolled up their trouser legs!
But the doctor says you are beautiful, but it is not desirable in health. If you don't pay attention when you are young, all the problems will come out when you are old.
The doctor warned:
Ankle joint is an important load-bearing joint of human body. Because there is less subcutaneous fat at the ankle, the warmth retention performance is poor. If the ankle is exposed prematurely, it may cause ankle pain and even cold legs.
Because blood circulation is very important to human organs or joints, if you catch a cold, the blood vessels will contract and the blood in the joints will get worse, which will cause joint damage and arthritis in the long run. If the joints are cold, the whole leg will be cold.
As the saying goes, cold starts from the soles of your feet, so you should follow the principle of freezing in spring and freezing in autumn, add and subtract clothes appropriately according to the temperature, and don't expose your ankles and neck and shoulders too early to avoid damaging your joints or catching a cold.
2. It is always said that spring covers autumn and it is frozen.
So what is the "spring over autumn"?
The interview found that in reality, people don't agree with whether "spring covering and autumn freezing" can enhance resistance. The reporter interviewed experts in this regard.
Wang Yuying, a professor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, told reporters that gradually reducing clothes in spring will not reduce the body's resistance. Adding clothes slowly in autumn is to improve the body's resistance. Therefore, we say that "covering spring and freezing autumn" can improve people's resistance, and it is true.
Why can "spring covering and autumn freezing" enhance human resistance?
Wang Yuying explained that the temperature changes greatly in spring, from cold to hot, so there is still a lot of cold weather in spring. At this time, if you take off your clothes too early and too fast, you are prone to upper respiratory tract infections, some infectious diseases and epidemics.
Therefore, we advocate proper cover in spring. Then it freezes in autumn and turns from hot to cold in autumn. Cold air stimulates tolerance to cold to cope with more cruel winter.
3. Cold hurts Yang from feet.
Exposing the ankle: cold hurts the yang from the foot.
When it is warm and cold, you will see many young men and women in the street wearing socks or cropped trousers, showing their ankles generously. This fashionable way of dressing is very unhealthy for Chinese medicine. Wang Rui, deputy chief physician of the Department of Orthopaedics, Nanjing Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, said that although the temperature is high during the day in spring, it is low and even chilly in the morning and evening. Cold air enters human meridians and joints from bare ankles, thus affecting health. As the saying goes, "cold starts from the foot", the foot is farthest from the heart, with less blood supply and slow circulation. The subcutaneous fat layer of the ankle is thin and the heat preservation is poor. If you don't pay attention to the warmth of the ankle joint, the three Yang meridians of the foot and the Yin San meridians of the foot here will be affected by cold pathogens, thus affecting the blood circulation of the whole body. At the beginning of a cold, it is recommended to soak your feet with hot water at 40 ~ 45 degrees Celsius before going to bed at night. The amount of water should not exceed the ankle, which can not only warm the feet, but also eliminate fatigue, maintain the yang, drive away the cold and strengthen the body.
