Men should avoid wearing cold clothes in seven areas in winter

"Not afraid of severe cold or scorching heat" is what many people think of men, but experts say that many parts of men are also very fragile. In winter, male friends should focus on protecting the parts that are most afraid of cold.

Feet

Experts point out that the feet of both men and women are the most sensitive to cold, and "cold feet means cold body". The meridians of the kidney, spleen and stomach all originate from the feet, but because the feet are the farthest from the heart, the blood has the longest "distance" to flow, and the blood supply is often insufficient. In winter, it is best for men to soak their feet in hot water every day to promote blood circulation throughout the body and warm up the whole body.

waist

The second coldest area for men is the waist. This part is the kidney, which likes warmth and hates cold. Once men feel cold, they will immediately "be upset", and suffer from sore waist and knees, impotence, premature ejaculation, etc. Therefore, when it is cold, men must wear medium-length coats and do not expose their waists.

Head

Experts say that the head is the master of the body, where all the yang meet and all the meridians are connected. Once attacked by the cold evil, it is easy to cause colds, rhinitis, headaches, toothaches, etc. Therefore, male friends must remember to keep their heads warm when it is cold. They must wear hats when going out, preferably ones that can cover the forehead. Do not take off the hat immediately after sweating on the head. Go indoors to slowly eliminate the sweat and avoid direct cold wind. In addition, combing your hair more than a hundred times every morning to make the scalp slightly warm is conducive to the smooth flow of qi and blood in the head meridians, promoting the rise of all yang and the unfailing qi and blood.

neck

The neck is the "fortress" of the human body. It supports the head above and the trunk below. It is also the throat and the only way for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. This makes its "body" particularly delicate. Once it is exposed to cold, cervical spondylosis, pharyngitis, and cerebrovascular diseases will follow. Experts recommend that male friends should wear stand-up collars in winter and wear scarves when going out.

lap

Cold knees can cause contraction of local muscles and blood vessels in the joints, causing joint pain. The key to protecting the knee joints is to keep warm, wear knee pads, or choose woolen trousers with thickened knees, and be careful not to exercise excessively.

ear

Experts say that ears are small in size and have a large area exposed to air, so heat is easily dissipated. In addition, the skin of the ears is thin, and the auricle lacks the protection of subcutaneous fat, making it very easy to develop frostbite. Therefore, when going out, you must wear earmuffs, or cover your ears with a large hat or scarf, and insist on massaging and rubbing the auricle every morning, noon, and evening, for about 5 to 10 minutes each time.

nose

The nose is often exposed to the outside. If the nasal mucosa is exposed to cold air, mucus secretion will decrease, capillaries will become brittle, and the "screen" function of the nose will become worse, causing bacteria to enter the lungs and increase the chance of respiratory infections. Therefore, experts recommend that male friends wear a pure cotton mask when going out, but it is best not to cover it with a scarf to prevent bacteria or fabric fibers on it from entering the nasal cavity. When it is cold, you can massage the nose every day. After rubbing the outer sides of your thumbs together to warm them up, massage up and down along the bridge of the nose and the nose for 30 times. Do it once before getting up in the morning and before going to bed at night to enhance blood circulation in the nose and improve cold resistance.
