In our busy lives, we often experience a variety of health problems, of which upper respiratory infections are one. Upper respiratory infections, abbreviated sense, refer to the sum of acute inflammation of the nasal cavity, throat or throat. Not only does it affect our daily lives, it may also inadvertently cause more serious health problems. Therefore, knowledge of upper respiratory infections is essential for our breathing health.
1. The causes of upper respiratory infections vary, the most common being viral infections. According to statistics, 70-80 per cent of upper respiratory infections are caused by viruses, including nose viruses, coronal viruses, gland viruses, influenza viruses, sub-influenza viruses and respiratory fusion viruses. They enter the human body through air, exposure, etc., causing damage to the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract and inflammation. In addition to viral infections, bacterial infections are an important cause of upper respiratory infections. Although bacterial infections cause relatively few upper respiratory infections, bacterial infections may be more common in certain situations, such as larynx infections and snotitis. These bacteria include soluble streptococcus, haemophilus influenzae, pneumococcus and streptococcus. They may exist alone or may follow the infection. In addition, allergies can lead to symptoms of upper respiratory infections. In particular, for those who are sensitive to allergies such as pollen, dust mites and so forth, allergies can cause symptoms such as nasal plugs and increased slugs, similar to those of upper respiratory infections.
II. Symptoms of upper respiratory infections Common symptoms include nasal plugs, sneezes, ingesting, itching, ingesting, headaches, headaches, all-body acidic pains, inactivity, etc. In the case of bacterial infections, symptoms such as high heat, throat pain and larynx can be aggravated. In addition, upper respiratory infections can lead to complications such as tonsionitis, mid-ear and sinus. It is noteworthy that the symptoms of upper respiratory infections are similar to other respiratory diseases such as influenza, bronchitis and pneumonia. Therefore, in case of associated symptoms, we need to have timely access to a doctor to determine the specific cause of the disease.
Treatment of upper respiratory infections But in cases of serious or persistent symptoms, we need to have access to timely medical care and treatment on the advice of a doctor. The principle of treatment of respiratory infections is based on treatment of symptoms, with attention to rest, drinking water, indoor air flow and the prevention of bacterial infections. For symptoms such as fever, sore throat, we can use antithermal painkillers; for symptoms such as nasal slugs, aldicarb increase, we can choose medicines such as salphate for treatment; and for cough symptoms, we can choose whether or not stale cough or stupor is available for treatment. In the case of bacterial infections, we need to treat with antibiotics. It should be noted, however, that the use of antibiotics should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor and that appropriate antibiotics should be selected on the basis of the results of bacterial training and drug-sensitive tests. In addition to drug treatment, we can take some non-pharmacological measures to mitigate the symptoms of upper respiratory infections. For example, adequate sleep, increased immune exercise and diet, and indoor humidity with humidifiers. These measures can help us to restore health faster.
The best way to prevent upper respiratory infections is to maintain good hygiene practices. We should do our best to wash our hands, avoid sharing equipment with those infected, and watch for the use of polite masks when coughing and sneezing. In addition, we can be vaccinated against specific pathogens such as influenza or measles. In times of seasonal alternation or sudden weather changes, we also need to pay special attention to warmness and clothing, especially for vulnerable groups such as young children and the elderly. Increased self-immunization through proper diet, moderate exercise, healthy mentalities and adequate sleep are also important means of preventing upper respiratory infections. In short, upper respiratory infections are a common respiratory disease, but as long as we understand their causes, symptoms, treatment and prevention methods, we can better protect their respiratory health. Let’s act together and be our own guardians of breathing well!
