戴口罩可以避免接觸太冷的口氣,有保溫作用。 �� |
又到了季節交替的時節,許多人早上起床總是忍不住流鼻水、打噴嚏,如何「吸得舒服」是很多人每天的大事。該怎麼解決?
鼻噴劑 舒緩過敏症狀
台灣大學附設醫院內科部主治醫師余忠仁說,上述情形多數是季節性的過敏症狀,減緩方式為使用類固醇的鼻噴劑;另一種則是血管驅動性過敏,來自較為敏感的鼻內黏膜受到冷空氣刺激後,變成腫大,預防方式就是注意「保溫」,避免鼻子接觸太冷的空氣。
也有人常莫名其妙地咳嗽,若不是「內心希望別人注意,所以咳一下,好喚起別人的注意」等心因性問題,大概就是生病了。
「如果咳嗽超過三星期,最好去看醫生!」余忠仁說,一般急性咳嗽不會超過三星期,而久咳超過八星期,就是慢性咳嗽了,原因很可能是鼻涕倒流、胃食道逆流、氣喘、支氣管炎、肺結核、肺腫瘤,或是服用了降血壓的藥…。
氣喘是現代文明病之一,發病年齡層已降低,「愈來愈多氣喘小孩了!」歸納導致氣喘的原因,包括基因遺傳、飲食或者環境誘發而來,以致會在半夜或清晨發出喘鳴聲、呼吸困難。
余忠仁提醒,氣喘屬於慢性發炎的阻塞性肺病,不能治癒,但可以透過藥物讓病情穩定。他表示,氣喘族群當中有六成患的是輕度氣喘,可能一生只有發作一到二次,只有其他四成患者才需要用到類固醇的鼻噴劑。
快戒菸 適度有氧運動
余忠仁說,呼吸道的保健沒有特殊方法,第一天條就是戒菸,以及避免空氣汙染;其次就是適度的有氧運動,比如打拳、快走或跑步;以及自我呼吸訓練,包括腹式呼吸,讓肺部膨脹,呼進大量空氣,或者噘嘴呼吸和步伐訓練等。
身為醫師,余忠仁不斷提醒大家戒菸。他說,香菸含有40種致癌物質,吸菸者得肺癌的機率是沒有抽菸的人的十倍。不過,肺癌與肺炎、肺結核不同,雖然都是跟呼吸道有關的疾病,但癌症是不會傳染的,有些人會誤會肺癌有傳染性。
