Allergies - something unpleasant

And well even if the allergen - pollen is a plant that blooms once a year. And if you have allergies is my home? There are two ways - to move from the home nest in a sterile hospital room, or to evict him from unwanted tenants. I think the second option will like all the more. About him and talk.

How do I find specialists who are allergic to household dust - the most common of its species. The composition of household dust is very difficult. Here and fiber fabrics from carpets, upholstered furniture, clothing, bed linen and even children's stuffed toys. And pieces of feather and down from the bedding, wool and epidermis of animals with fur items.



Here and toxic waste products of microorganisms that inhabit our house. This is not only cockroaches, spiders and other companions of humanity, but also all sorts of billions of microscopic mites that feed on any organic matter. These microscopic mites love all natural: willingly live in woolen carpets, rugs and blankets. But the closest proximity to us are those who settle in Perov-feather pillows. The warm moist environment, full of food - that paradise for ticks peroedov leads to the fact that after ten years of operation, each pillow of feathers or down to 40 (!) Percent is made up of mites themselves and the products of vital activity.



Quill, as many remember from zoology, consists of tiny hooks, which individually are very small and easily penetrate through the fabric Napernikov in our lungs. Just imagine how many tiny hooks dig into our throat, bronchi and lungs with each breath!



Do not believe me? And if you happened on the night sudden attacks of dry cough invincible? If this happens regularly, then it's time to say goodbye with a pillow. But do not wait until you develop an allergy (and sometimes asthma). Perov and pillows should be changed at least once in 10 years, and annually to fade at maximum temperatures and a good "roast thoroughly" in the sunshine and warm breeze. Not for glass! Allergens mites decompose under the action of ultraviolet rays. And mites themselves do not tolerate low temperatures, so that winter is not too lazy to make at least once a month bedding in the cold.



The same can be said about mattresses with natural fillings and woolen blankets. The latter can cause allergies without mites: for pet hair - one of the most aggressive allergens.

My TOP Health Goals

You can do differently, if sorry to part with your favorite things. Pack your pillows, mattresses and blankets in the covers of plastic or vinyl material - they do not miss allergens. And in general, remember: with mites can fight! Wash things in which they can live in hot (not below 70 degrees) water, do not let the strong humidity (over 50 per cent) in the living rooms. For the destruction of mites in carpets, use special preparations - acaricides.





Bedding from the soft tissues, istirayas under your body, too, gives a microscopic dust from the lint. To breathe in a bedroom easily and freely, use only the smooth linen - made of cotton fabric or Darkon.





Fluffy household carpets are also breeding grounds for mites, but the main thing - they keep the home dust, preventing a vacuum cleaner (even a very powerful and modern) and a wet rag in time to deliver you from it. So if someone from the household established allergic to house dust, have to part with all pylesobirayuschimi things in the house: loose upholstered furniture, heavy curtains, thick carpets, cushions, an excess of soft toys.



As you already understood, synthetics (of course, high-quality, hypoallergenic) - the best choice to deal with dust and mites. So if you are allergic will have to replace all natural "plum" things: blinds or curtains of thin pyleottalkivayuschih fabrics, pillows, blankets sintepon, the mattress of foam rubber or vacuum-sealed in an airtight plastic bag, furniture with foam-rubber padding and a detachable covers for washing.



Allergic (or in his presence) should not also work at home sewing, knitting, rewinding wool, work with fur, paper, silnopahnuschimi substances. And even to make wet cleaning house. If you need these duties is no one to pass - to arrange a home draft, protect your breathing wet gauze bandage, and do not stay in the house after cleaning for 3-4 hours. Get a modern vacuum cleaner with a multistage purification of air and monitor the effectiveness of filters.



If you suffer from allergies need to be reviewed and wardrobe. If possible, give up the natural wool and fur things, and multi-layered winter clothing do not forget to knock out and erase.



Do not store books and stuff in the open (unglazed) shelves, do not keep a lot of small gifts, from which so difficult to remove dust. Do not dilute the pot flowers: they accumulate dust and live allergenic molds. Do not use mothballs, aerosol air fresheners and insecticides.



Unfortunately, as established professionals, to allergy to household dust is almost always soon joined and are allergic to pet dander and feathers of birds. So, without waiting for the expansion of the spectrum of allergens, you will have to part with pets, even if it is hard psychologically. Allergists include a list of potentially dangerous to pets and aquarium fish because of the high allergenicity of their dry food. In this case we can restrict the exception of their diet of dry fodder.

Tips for getting rid of bruises

Bruises, or in another bruising, in most cases we find striking about something. Upon impact burst blood vessels and blood of them spreads under the skin, causing swelling discoloration and tenderness.


Bruising in the elderly, whose skin is thinned with age, due to the destruction of connective tissue and the fragility of blood vessels. While it is not customary to say, but young women on their shoulders, wrists and hips are fairly common in the form of bruises, "fingerprints" - the result of maltreatment boyfriend or husband at the time too rough sex.



Prolonged exposure to the sun also makes the skin more susceptible to bruising. The same result leads receive multiple drugs, including drugs like aspirin, blood thinning.



How to get rid of bruises



Doctors say that an ordinary bruise to disappear by itself within a few weeks. As the healing he consistently changes color from reddish-blue to purple-black, then yellowish-green.
The lower body are bruised, the slower they heal. The face is a bruise a week later, on the body - in two weeks, and the leg may remain for months. The fact is that in the vessels of the legs greater blood pressure, so there they are bleeding more than, say, on the hands.

Ice made, the ice was removed



If you attach the ice immediately after impact, then reduce the size and intensity of a bruise and relieve pain. Cold causes blood vessels to shrink, so less blood gets to the surrounding tissue.
Use ice wrapped in cloth and cool bruise 10-20 minutes, then take a break. Repeat every two hours.
Try to keep the ice in the refrigerator, but not in the freezer. It will be quite cold, but not freeze and become hard, so it will be convenient to attach to the body.



Zabintuyte it



Immediately tighten the bruised area with elastic bandage (especially if the bruise on his leg), to exert pressure on the torn cartilage. This will prevent the diversion of large quantities of blood, and the bruise will not be so large.



Warm



After 24 hours, when the bruise has formed, you can apply the heat. At this stage, the heat helps to expand the surrounding blood vessels, so they can quickly carry away the accumulated fluid and blood cells. Arrange a hot tub or attach to the bruises heater for 20 minutes. Do this three times a day - until then, not completely get rid of a bruise. But MirSovetov does not recommend applying heat immediately after the impact - it does not help, and even vice versa. The heat causes swelling of tissues, and at an early stage, it will only increase the bleeding, and bruising will be noticeable.


You Gonna Get Treatment

Vitamin K on bruising



Look at pharmacies, special creams from bruises with vitamin C. The cream penetrates the skin and provides a place bruised vitamin K, which requires your body to decompose and recycle the blood flowed. To rub cream with vitamin K in a bruise after injury and then twice a day until the bruise will not disappear.
But do not think that the same good result will the use of foods rich in these vitamins. Studies have shown that such food does not create a sufficiently high concentration of vitamin A to produce a noticeable effect.



While you are not completely get rid of a bruise, will be able to disguise it with a special cosmetic yellowish color. Because bruises - a mixture of blue and red, then, if you apply for a place of yellow, you neutralize a bruise and make it invisible.
Such funds are sold in pharmacies. They released a lot of firms. Look for waterproof composition, so they do not ducked out and went down with sweat.



Immunity from bruises

If you are tormented by the bruises, then you need more, take this vitamin. Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, but if this fails, try taking a multivitamin.

As a long-term prevention of bruises on a daily basis, try to use creams and lotions with vitamin C, can be found in pharmacies. Vitamin C is absorbed into the skin and eventually contributes to the growth of collagen, which protects and supports the blood vessels, making it less likely bruising.
However, if you choose to take vitamins in capsule form, consult your doctor. Large doses of vitamin C increase the risk of kidney stones. To avoid this, be sure to drink more water when taking vitamin C.
