In the past two days
I believe that there are many people who have suffered from "yang"
and are changing towards "yang health"
Although the high fever has subsided
for many people, the subsequent symptoms
are unbearable
such as "non-stop coughing", "cement-sealed nose", difficulty breathing, "throat swallowing razor blades", non-stop runny nose and other symptoms, I believe that friends are very familiar with them.
So, how much scientific understanding do
friends have about these symptoms of recovery?
What should
pay special attention to during the protection process?
Today we have brought you a guide
I believe many friends can relate to this
Because they are worried about "coughing non-stop" in
public places
It will affect others
Many people will deliberately hold back their coughs
But this is not advisable!
Ronaldinho (surname changed) is 20 years old this year. After being infected with the new coronavirus, he developed severe coughing symptoms during the recovery process. Due to his long coughing, high coughing frequency and loud coughing, he was worried about affecting the colleagues working around him, so he tried hard to hold it in so that he would not cough out. At the same time, he was also worried about the side effects of the medicine and did not take cough medicine, which eventually caused him to suffer from transient syncope.
The doctor who treated Ronaldinho found that
Ronaldinho suppressed himself for a long time and
did not let himself cough
, which resulted in increased intrathoracic pressure and intracranial pressure.
That's why he fainted.
Ronaldinho's experience is not an isolated case. If he suppresses himself for a long time and does not cough, it may lead to pneumothorax, which can be life-threatening in serious cases. According to reports, in addition to syncope caused by trying to hold your breath and not coughing, there are many clinical cases of syncope caused by severe coughing, that is, cough syncope syndrome.
When a severe cough affects work and rest, a severe cough causes hemoptysis, or a cough causes nausea and vomiting, you must consult a doctor in time for medication. Clinically, when dry cough occurs with little or no phlegm, you can take dextromethorphan hydrobromide oral liquid, Suhuang cough capsule , Yumei tablets, etc. However, it is worth noting that everyone’s constitution and symptoms are different, so you must consult a doctor before taking medicine, and you must not take medicine blindly.
01 About cough
Q: Many netizens asked: Why do I still cough after turning negative?
Li Tong, chief physician of the Department of Infectious Diseases at Beijing You'an Hospital, once said that the Omicron mutant strain is mainly in the upper respiratory tract, and immune cells will naturally metabolize and die after completing their tasks. These have become "garbage" in our bodies. Coughing is a process of cleaning the "battlefield" and repairing the airway, and almost all are completely cured within fourteen days.
Q: What should I do if I keep coughing? Let’s take a look at the experts’ suggestions
02 You need to know about these problems of nasal congestion
!
In addition to coughing, many friends reported that during the recovery process, they had symptoms of "cement nose", which made the nasal cavity feel like it was blocked. In severe cases, it was even difficult to breathe.
In response to this problem, experts suggest: First, rinse the nose with physiological saline or physiological sea salt water. This can take away the foreign matter in the nasal cavity and make the nasal cavity unblocked again.
In addition, we can also press the " Yingxiang point " on the face. This acupoint is located next to the midpoint of the outer edge of the nose. Pressing it when you have nasal congestion can help clear the nose.
In addition, using hot towels, adjusting your sleeping position to side sleeping, etc. can help relieve nasal congestion.

What will happen to the body within 168 hours of being infected with new crown ?
You are not fighting alone!
On December 19, Zheng Bolong, deputy chief physician of the Spinal Surgery Department of Honghui Hospital in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, introduced in detail the different changes in the body 168 hours after being infected with the new coronavirus on the short video platform Dr. Zheng Bolong. And emphasized, "You will understand how much your body loves you!"

Dr. Zheng Bolong said that if it starts with a cough, a sneeze or an unprotected contact, you are infected with the new coronavirus.
However, the amount of virus is very small at first. It will penetrate into the cells of the throat and use the raw materials in the cells to synthesize its RNA (ribonucleic acid) and protein . It is assembled into small viruses and then released to infect more cells, so you will feel uncomfortable in your throat at first.
24 hours:
will have a relatively "Silent Eve". However, the virus uses this golden incubation period to create countless clones in the body, preparing to launch a general attack.
48 hours:
The immune system has sounded the alarm, macrophages , B cells , T cells are on standby at any time. At this time, your immune system will also seek the resources of the temperature regulation center to regulate the body temperature to above 39°C.
72 hours:
This was the day when the symptoms were the most severe. I had to rest in bed. The continuous high temperature caused the body to consume too much energy, a large amount of lactic acid accumulated in the muscles, and the symptoms of dizziness, fatigue, and body aches were obvious.
Immune cells do not rest at this time. Macrophages are responsible for phagocytosis of cells invaded by the virus. B cells are responsible for secreting antibodies to neutralize the virus. T cells will secrete a large amount of cytokine to recruit more immune cells for support.
96 hours:
The body temperature begins to drop, and the immune cells gradually gain the upper hand, but the virus is still "dying" in the throat, and swallowing saliva makes the throat hurt like "swallowing a razor blade".
120 hours:
The virus loses to your immune system, and a large number of dead cells and virus "corpses" accumulate in the nasal cavity and throat. Therefore, the body tries to get rid of these garbage through runny nose, coughing, etc.
168 hours:
is the seventh day. The battlefield was finally cleaned up, and the immune cells that had made great achievements in combat retired. So you are not fighting alone, hundreds of millions of immune cells in your body are fighting with you.
