Precautions for winter swimming

1. Avoid swimming after strenuous exercise:
Swimming immediately after strenuous exercise will increase the burden on the heart; the sudden drop in body temperature will weaken the resistance and cause pharyngitis, colds, etc. 2. Avoid swimming before or after meals:
Swimming on an empty stomach will affect appetite and digestive function, and may also cause unexpected situations such as dizziness and fatigue during swimming; swimming on a full stomach will also affect digestive function, and may also cause stomach cramps, and even vomiting and abdominal pain.
3. Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun and swimming:
Prolonged exposure to the sun can cause sun spots or acute dermatitis, also known as sunburn. To prevent sunburn, it is best to use an umbrella to block the sun after going ashore, or rest in the shade of a tree, or use a bath towel to protect your skin, or apply sunscreen to exposed parts of the body.
4. Avoid swimming if you have otitis media:
Whether it is chronic or acute otitis media, water entering the inflamed middle ear is like "adding insult to injury", making the condition worse and even causing intracranial infection.
5. Avoid swimming during menstruation:
If you swim during menstruation, bacteria can easily enter the uterus, fallopian tubes, etc., causing infection, leading to irregular menstruation, excessive menstrual flow, and prolonged menstruation.
6. Avoid swimming without warm-up exercises:
The water temperature is usually lower than body temperature, so you must do warm-up exercises before entering the water, otherwise you may feel uncomfortable.
7. Avoid swimming for patients with hypertension:
Especially for stubborn hypertension, which is difficult to control with medication, swimming has the potential risk of inducing stroke and should be absolutely avoided.
