Many diseases are exacerbated by the advent of autumn, especially with the decline in temperatures and high levels of humidity, which is a suitable environment for the growth of pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, we must follow some precautions and instructions necessary to avoid a worsening of the health situation during this time of the year.
According to a report published in Healthline, we address the most important diseases associated with the fall season, including:
1: Influenza and Viral Infections:
The end of autumn is usually accompanied by epidemics of viral infection, often influenza and its unpleasant symptoms.
2: angina pectoris:
Infections that enter the oral cavity are deposited on the tonsils, so an inflammatory process occurs and, as a result, the risk of angina pectoris increases.
3: cystitis:
Autumn weather can deceive you, so wearing some summer clothes exposes them to hypothermia and cystitis.
4. Laryngitis:
Many of us are exposed to annoying infections in the throat and larynx, which you find pain and difficulty when swallowing, and you may suffer from a hoarse and low voice.
5. Dermatology:
Cases of dermatitis and skin diseases occur quite often, and this is due to a decrease in the body’s defenses and an increase in the activity of microorganisms that cause disease.
6. Digestive disorders:
Exacerbation of chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract results from a sharp change in diet, as well as a less active biological cycle of the body during the autumn season.
7. Allergic reactions:
During the fall, people take refuge in the house, which exacerbates allergies with an increase in the amount of dust and chemicals inhaled.
8. Inflammation of the kidneys:
Often the cause of this disease is hypothermia in the lumbar region or prolonged sitting on cold surfaces.
9. Autumn depression:
It occurs as a result of hormonal changes related to the biological clock that changes mood, with a decrease in sunlight, which leads to feelings of depression and a decrease in activity and energy.
Experts recommended some tips to prevent autumn diseases, including:
1. Get influenza vaccine Avoid crowded places.
2. Wash hands often with soap and water and avoid touching surfaces.
3. Treat your sinuses and take vitamins to boost your immunity.
