It’s the beginning of autumn, so be careful about the acute attack of dacryocystitis caused by the temperature difference between day and night!

The beginning of autumn means the summer is gone and autumn is coming.

As the saying goes, "If the beginning of autumn comes early, it will be chilly; if the beginning of autumn comes late, it will be so hot that cattle will die." People believe that the time of the beginning of autumn is related to whether the weather is cool or hot, but there is no definitive answer in meteorology. The hot weather that can "kill cattle" is also commonly known as the "autumn tiger."

But the dog days have not passed yet, so it is often the case that "autumn has arrived, but the heat is hard to dissipate." At this time, the summer dampness and heat accumulated in the human body have not completely dissipated, and patients with dacryocystitis are prone to acute attacks, leading to acute dacryocystitis, and it becomes like this!

It's even like this

After the beginning of autumn, the temperature difference is large, hot at noon, cool in the morning and evening. In addition, the change of seasons will reduce the body's immunity and disease resistance, which can easily lead to acute attacks of chronic dacryocystitis. Therefore, in addition to maintaining local eye hygiene, patients with dacryocystitis should not rub their eyes with dirty hands, wipe tears and secretions with clean tissues or handkerchiefs, and often use antibiotic eye drops to prevent infection. In daily life, they should also pay attention to the following:

You should add or remove clothes appropriately according to the climate change to avoid catching a cold. After the beginning of autumn, you should be moderate in seeking coolness and avoid using the air conditioner too much or drinking too much cold drinks. At the same time, you should be careful about "autumn melons causing stomach upset" and try to eat less melons and fruits to avoid gastrointestinal diseases, which will also lead to a decrease in body resistance.

After the beginning of autumn, liver qi is suppressed in autumn. The liver controls emotions and regulates qi and blood. At this time, people are prone to low mood and imbalance of qi and blood, which are manifested by depression, palpitations, insomnia, endocrine disorders, etc.

To nourish the liver in autumn, eat more Chinese cabbage, carrots, kelp, lotus seeds, cucumbers, etc., which can help the circulation of liver qi, enhance the liver's detoxification function, and naturally avoid the occurrence of adverse symptoms.

Director Zhang Jiang of the Lacrimal Duct Department of the Aier Eye Hospital affiliated to Wuhan University said: The best way is to cure dacryocystitis in time after the autumn cools down. Some elderly people are afraid of surgery and think that it is not a big problem if their tears are a little thick. However, as they get older, their resistance will decrease and they will have acute attacks. At that time, they will want to treat it, but surgery will be more difficult as they are older. It is better to cure dacryocystitis as soon as possible while they are still healthy so that they can have a happier old age.
