Hello! I have been a doctor for 21 years. My name is Georgy Olegovich Sapego. In this article I will tell you how to sweat less with a mask.
Now it is cooler outside, but it rains, it has become humid, and people are sweating in transport. Many are constantly pulling and sliding their masks.
Here's what is useful to know
A normal mask should be more than one layer of material. This is the only way it keeps snot and drool that you cough up and spit out during a conversation.
It is clear that in a multi-layer mask it is as hot as in a jacket. It is said that about a quarter of the heat dissipation goes through the head. So if you wrap your face in a multi-layered bandage, it can get hot.
What to do
If the sun hits you, then choose a mask of light colors. The approach is the same as with clothing. When sitting by the window on a bus, a black mask will heat up faster than a white one.
Drink plenty of water. This is a universal rule for overheating.
Step away from people, take off your mask and take a break. In this case, the main thing is not to sneeze at others. If you cannot be wearing a mask, then move away from the crowd.
When dressing, expect to be wearing a mask. She warms as a separate piece of clothing. So make the correction and wear fewer clothes.
The mask must be changed every time it gets wet. The mask is usually wet from the exhaled moisture, but it can also get wet from sweat. It doesn't matter what makes it wet - carry a spare with you and change wet to dry.
