Whenever I blow the air conditioner, I keep sneezing and sniffling, and my nose is clear water, why and how can I prevent it?
I am a Chinese medicine doctor, and I often encounter such patients in my clinic, and this is how I look at this problem.
Chinese medicine says that the lung opens to the nose. Shape cold drink cold will hurt the lungs. In particular, people with yang deficiency are prone to sneezing and sniffling when exposed to cold.
Also not only open the air conditioning, easy to run a clear nose, eat ice people drink fruit is also very easy to appear similar situation. In fact, such a situation is our usual cold, cold after the symptoms of cold.
In Western medicine, this is a manifestation of chronic allergic rhinitis. In Chinese medicine, it is typically caused by cold. In fact, it is a wind-cold-induced manifestation.
And some people would have been Yang deficiency in the body of water dampness and water drink is relatively heavy, after catching a cold snot runny nose will be more serious. Often are manifested as sneezing again and again, clear snot flow ceaselessly.
How to regulate this condition. One is to release the cold through pungent warmth and emit it through sweating. The other is to warm the interior and remove watery drinks.
So the only way to cure this condition is to dissipate the cold by warming and dispersing the cold and relieving the surface, and then to remove the inner cold by warming the inside and removing the watery drinks.
The best formula to use, you are the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing, in the typhoid miscellany recorded inside the Xiaoqinglong Tang.
Xiaoqinglongtang : 10 grams of ephedra, 10 grams of white peony, 5 grams of dry ginger, 5 grams of fine Xin, 15 grams of cinnamon sticks, 10 grams of schizandra, 10 grams of roasted licorice, 10 grams of half-summertime, add six bowls of water to each dose to boil into two bowls over a high heat, drink one bowl on an empty stomach in three hours, and reduce the amount by half for children, and sweat it out after taking the medicine.

Blowing air conditioning causes sneezing and watery nasal discharge, usually by blowing cold air, when encountering cold air stimulation, there are many people can appear continuous sneezing or watery nasal discharge. Some people can also have similar symptoms when they eat hot meals and bad air stimulation. When containing patients to the hospital or some clinics, some doctors explain to the patient, "you should be allergic to cold air allergic cause allergic rhinitis!" . From the ENT point of view, this diagnosis is a little far-fetched, in reality, it is the ear, nose and throat doctors often say "Vasomotor rhinitis".
vasomotor rhinitisThe pathogenesis of many reasons, such as mental tension, anxiety, environmental temperature changes, endocrine dysfunction, etc., can cause excessive parasympathetic neurotransmitter release, causing histamine and cytokines non-specific release of these histamines and cytokines, which is to cause vasodilatation, gland secretion increased. The blood vessels of the former nasal cavity become congested and edematous, the secretion increases, and the corresponding symptoms appear:Intermittent nasal congestion, unusual sensitivity to changes in climate and ambient temperature; watery nasal discharge, episodes of sneezing; decreased sense of smell, dizziness, and more. There areWhen structural deformities in the nasal cavity, such asDeviated septum, vesicular middle turbinate, etc.In this case, they come into contact with each other and even press against each other. In is the development of compensatory turbinate hypertrophy, so that the long-established irritation can aggravate the disease.
How to combat it? First.Avoid or remove predisposing factors such as:Improve the working conditions and environment, master the rhythm of life, stabilize emotions, maintain an optimistic state of mind, distraction, do not overwork and tension. You can consider psychological guidance treatment, in is suggestive treatment. The effect is sometimes very good.In is to consider medication:But medication isn't used often, and in itself, this type of rhinitis is prone to flare-ups, or episodes. May be the attack is a moment of time, when the drug works, the symptoms are relieved, there is no point in using the drug at the time of the attack. Nor is it a frequent medication thing. Long-used drugs have decongestant drugs (can not be used frequently, can cause drug rhinitis), nasal spray glucocorticoids, can also use some antihistamines and anti-leukotriene receptor antagonists.A few can be considered for surgical treatment:It's all about the structures in the nasal cavityDeformities, such as nasal septum deviation, vesicular middle turbinate, etc., obviously cause nasal congestion hyperplasia hypertrophic turbinate, nasal mucosa long-term edema formation of theNose breath meat.
Vasomotor rhinitis is not a big problem on its own, so early prevention and good lifestyle habits are crucial. Suggestions1. Regularly participate in physical exercise to increase resistance.2. Be careful not to go in and out of a cold or hot environment suddenly (especially for people who are sensitive to air-conditioning, do not stay in an air-conditioned house, it is best not to touch).3. often do nasal massage, it is recommended that usually often cold water to wash the face, it can slowly stimulate, can relieve the hot and cold sensitivity.4.Keep warm during an attack.
