"Wife, prepare some salt water for me. I have always felt that is dry and , it is not because of the heat."

Lao Xu has always felt dry and thought that it was because of the frequent boiling pot in winter that caused the heat. He didn't care too much, so he asked his wife to add some light salt water to reduce the heat.

However, in the past two weeks, Lao Xu has been eating a light diet and still feels dry mouth. It’s okay to have dry mouth during the day, so he can drink a lot of water. But at night, is prone to urination after drinking water. If you don’t drink water, you will feel bitter in , which makes Lao Xu very confused.

Especially in the past few days, Lao Xu realized that he was not only dry and thirsty, but also and even sweated profusely for no reason at night. After getting up, he found that his whole back was wet. He was worried about the disease, so he hurried to the hospital to register.

Unexpectedly, after a set of examinations, the doctor told me that it was because of hyperthyroidism.

Doctor explained that thyroid is an important hormone that promotes the body's metabolism. When there is too much secretion, the body's metabolism will accelerate. In addition, oxygen consumption and heat production increase, symptoms such as sweating, dry mouth and thirst will occur.

1. Always dry mouth when sleeping, which implies what is the situation

Dry mouth is a very common phenomenon. The body needs to consume energy to metabolize every day, which requires water to maintain. Therefore, when drinking less water, eating too salty, stress, and dry indoor environment, dry mouth may occur. These are physiologically caused by dry mouth and have nothing to do with the disease.

But sometimes the mouth is often dry, which may also be a hint of the disease.

is respiratory disease , such as colds, rhinitis , sinusitis , etc. Due to the obstruction of the nose, it may lead to oral breathing, thereby inducing dry mouth.

Second, inflammation causes , such as tonsillitis , pharyngitis, new coronary , etc., which will affect the oral mucosa, resulting in a decrease in secretory function, resulting in symptoms of dry mouth.

The third is Diabetic . Diabetic patients are common symptoms of drinking, urinating, eating more, and weight loss. When the body's sugar cannot be fully utilized, it can only be excreted through urine. However, with frequent urination, , the body's moisture will also be lost in large quantities, causing thirst.

is Dialog insipidus . Patients may have polyuria and enuresis. At this time, a large amount of water in the human body will easily feel dry mouth and tongue.

For dry mouth caused by physiological causes, as long as you replenish water in a moderate small mouth, it can be relieved in time. You can make some flower tea, wolfberry water, etc. on weekdays to achieve the effect of promoting salivation and quenching thirst.

If the mouth is caused by disease, it is often not relieved by drinking water. should go to the hospital as soon as possible for examination to solve the problem from the fundamental source.

2. Four discomforts occur when sleeping, or signals of disease coming

When the following discomforts occur when sleeping, beware of the hints of certain diseases:

. Chest tightness Chest pain

People with healthy heart generally have better sleep quality. If you often feel chest tightness and chest pain while sleeping, you should doubt whether coronary artery disease causes myocardial ischemia and .

At this time, patients generally feel sternum pain, may be accompanied by chest tightness, shortness of breath, rapid breathing, and significantly accelerated heartbeat .

, sleep cramps

Many people suddenly have cramps in their calf during sleep. Many people think it is a manifestation of calcium deficiency. In fact, calf cramps are also related to excessive fatigue, cold catching, and wrong sleeping position.

but it may also be blocked in the legs, such as arteriosclerosis or varicose veins cause . If you have frequent cramps for a period of time, it is best to go to the hospital for treatment.

. Drooling when sleeping

When the sleeping position is wrong, sleeping on your stomach, or sleeping with your face pressed, it will stimulate your mouth and drool unconsciously.

But if you sleep in the right position, you will also drool and be alert to the warning of blood clots. , especially the elderly, often drools unconsciously when sleeping, which is likely to be stiff in the facial muscles, which leads to , which is a precursor to cerebral thrombosis.

. Nocturnal urinary

For the elderly, organ aging problems may irritate the urethra and cause frequent urination symptoms.

However, the increase in nocturnal urine is also related to pathological causes, such as renal loss caused by kidney disease injury, is common in chronic glomerulonephritis, chronic pyelonephritis, or caused by diabetes, because of excessive blood sugar, solute diuresis.

3. "People sleep for three sleeps and their lives are thinner than paper", is it true or false?

As the saying goes, "A person sleeps for three sleeps and lives are thinner than paper." It means that there are three types of sleep that cannot sleep, otherwise it will cause harm to the body. These three types of sleep specifically refer to:

, sleep in

For young people, sleeping in on weekends is worthy of their rest days. However, this practice can easily break the biological clock , and you will find that the more you sleep, the more tired you become, and even dizzy you will feel. For health, it is better to develop the habit of going to bed early and getting up early.

, sleep after meals

Sleep for a while after meals, especially at midday, which is not a bad thing. It can enhance mental strength and provide motivation for afternoon work.

, but it is not advisable to fall asleep immediately after a meal. This will affect digestion and cannot exert the benefits of sleep to the body. . It is recommended that you walk after a meal and move around to give your stomach a time to digest.

, reverse

is contrary to the human body's biological clock, sleeping upside down day and night, and does not conform to the rules of the biological clock. This way of sleeping, will affect melanin secretion, seriously lead to endocrine disorders, , and the organs cannot repair themselves, which is harmful to health.

If you have to work late at night, you should adjust your "biological clock" and try to meet your sleep patterns. If you are not a late-night worker, you should develop the habit of going to bed early and getting up early.

"Sleeping" is not only a way for the body to repair itself, but also can detect physical heresy as soon as possible through abnormal sleep. When you find that your sleep quality has changed, you should pay attention to it at this time. If you feel discomfort, go to the hospital for relevant examination as soon as possible.
