How To Scan The Stomach

Allergic!

Allergy sufferers and asthmatics know that your environment can become a hostile factor. Paolo Tassinari (president of the Venezuelan Society of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology) provides some measures to prevent relapses and living spaces "friendly"

1
Plush in the sights

For allergic children, involving all the stuffed animals in plastic is not cool. In fact, it is advisable not to have stuffed animals or rugs.

"Not because the toy itself allergy, but they accumulate dust. If you really want to leave the child one of these toys, everything that can be washed frequently right. Also avoid having books in the room, because they tend to gather dust and fungus. "

2 bed free of mites

One of the first environmental control measures is to place anti-allergic lining both the mattress and the pillow. "There other products such as acaricide sprays for both the mattress and for carpets, but the only thing that has proven to be effective are the liners. "Similarly, the sheets are changed once a week.

Public Enemies
MITES Mites are a minimum insect belonging to the family of spiders. Tassinari compared with a microscopic tick, whose feces can cause allergic reactions in humans. "The problem is that it is very small and fleet on the air. That's why when you turn on a fan, people sneeze, because the mite resuspended again. "To be more precise, it party at temperatures between 20 and 25 degrees with high humidity. Dusty environments are their preferred habitat.


COCKROACHES "The thing that causes allergy, cockroach antigen hurtful, is what is animal droppings. Some say they sprayed and did not have cockroaches, but if you move the window or out the dressers, there are their waste, "said the doctor, adding that the fumigation system is less harmful dust, which is odorless. Needless to say, a sprayinsecticida is not advisable in some airways are easily irritated. Pollens


Not only must we be aware of the rooms, but from outside. "People live in an apartment and may have very clean her room, but opens the window and has a saman. Not that one is allergic to tree, but when it blooms, the fuzz or polencito can irritate, they are things to consider. Something similar happens with strong odors.

absolutely clean curtains

Nor is it to get radical and left the house with minimal furniture, almost Japanese, which is clean in one pass with a cloth. The specialist points out that the curtains, which are often as wrong view, could survive the decoration on probation to be washed every month, it all depends on the amount of dust that tend to pile up.

Goodbye fan

experts do not advocate the use of fans, it stirs up the dust. "And not the street, but the house dust that accumulates on the floor, the peeling of the skin, hair, pet hair. There grows the mite, "says Tassinari. "It is better to use air conditioning instead of fans, because it also filters and dehumidify. The important thing is to make a good maintenance if the filter is full of mushrooms, until we got there. "

5
Emphasis on key sites

While special measures are mainly applied in the bedroom, another site that deserves attention is the study or recreation. "If we clean very well the room, but that person is watching TV in a very old fabric sofa, which also mounts the cat, and next to a library with thousands of books, we did nothing." If time does not leave the house for a cup of silver, the most visited rooms have priority.

6 Beware of leaks

moisture deserves special mention. "It breaks a pipe and can pass months until you see the broken wall and stained, there not only proliferating fungi, but the mites. Very damp houses dehumidifiers are recommended, which are different than air purifiers. What they do is subtract water from the air, unfiltered. " A purifier reduces the concentration of suspended particles. "It would be used, for example, houses with reed roof, where there is dust and fuzz."

What about pets?

An allergic person should not live with furry or feathered pets. Both cats and dogs gather dust on the hair and drag him into the room. "If one is testing allergy and are negative for positive dog and mite, and you know that the problem is not him but the mite, the detail is that the dog is a 'vehicle'. There are a number of measures such as weekly baths, which make the animal suffer more than anything else, so we have to keep them clear to decide, "he stresses.

Cleaning method

The goal is to clean without stirring up dust, with emphasis on sites where the asthmatic or allergic to spend more time. Ideally, use a damp cloth and doublet instead of duster and broom.

cleaning house is better in the absence of the victim. Avoid smells penetrating as painting, smoking and certain cleaning agents.

-normal vacuums to collect the garbage bag-fail to keep dust mites are too small, but rather the re-suspended in the air. The most recommended in these cases are those with a purifying filter.

Towels and sheets of allergic washed in hot water. Must be aired in high-temperature dryer.

is preferable to use air conditioning instead FAN.

Why persevere?

Environmental monitoring is one of the first indications that an individual receives an allergy or asthma to avoid situations that worsen their condition. "The big problem when one accounts for these measures is that it seems easy, but ultimately it is annoying. Most patients do for a while, but then let their guard down and when we come to see are the same as before, "said the specialist.

"Sometimes you have to medicate the patient to feel better and not always one can eliminate the medication, although it reduced when it is a good environmental control, is indisputable. The idea of \u200b\u200btreatment is to improve, and meanwhile look for alternatives to lead a normal life. "
