When it comes to rheumatism, people think it only occurs in middle-aged and elderly people. However, with the change of living habits, more and more young people are beginning to join the ranks of rheumatism. So why do young people get rheumatism? How can this disease be prevented? Once the weather gets cold, mothers will start to spread the message in their circle of friends: If you don’t wear thermal underwear and love to show off, you will get cold legs when you get old! As the saying goes: There is a kind of love called "No matter where you go, your mother will send you long johns!" So should you listen to your mother? Will you really get cold legs and rheumatism if you don't wear long johns? What is rheumatism? Rheumatism is a group of diseases that mainly attack joints, bones, muscles, blood vessels and related soft tissues or connective tissues. Most of them are autoimmune diseases. The main symptoms are joint swelling, pain and stiffness. According to surveys, rheumatism is not limited to the elderly. In recent years, rheumatic diseases are becoming younger and younger! What is the reason for the younger age of rheumatic disease? Clothing issues Young people always pay no attention to keeping warm, they prefer style to temperature, and would rather shiver than wear long johns. In summer, they pay no attention to keeping warm, often wearing short sleeves and shorts in air-conditioned rooms, and the invasion of cold air can easily lead to rheumatism. Irregular diet Young people indulge in eating and like to consume high-calorie foods, which leads to a lot of animal fat in their bodies, which is converted into substances that can cause arthritis and rheumatism. Irregular life Young people often stay up late, work overtime, or are overworked. Bad living habits lead to low immunity, which is also an important cause of rheumatic diseases. What should patients with rheumatism pay attention to? Do proper exercise. After the disease is under control, pay attention to the combination of work and rest. You can do radio gymnastics, Tai Chi, walk, etc. to relieve joint stiffness and promote blood circulation. Reduce wind and cold. To prevent cold, rain and moisture, pay more attention to keeping the joints warm. On rainy or cold days, you can wear elastic knee pads to prevent the joints from being exposed. Reasonable diet. Patients with rheumatic diseases should usually take in foods that are high in vitamins and high-quality protein, ensure a light diet, eat as little spicy and greasy food as possible, and should also be careful not to eat animal offal. Maintain a positive attitude. Since rheumatism often recurs and lasts for a long time, patients should cultivate an optimistic attitude, maintain a good mental state, treat the disease correctly, and avoid being impatient and anxious. See a doctor promptly. When you experience rheumatic symptoms such as joint swelling, pain, and stiffness, do not use folk remedies on your own, as this may delay or even worsen the condition. See a doctor promptly and follow the doctor's advice. |
