A comment: I get sick with a "cold" about once every 5 years (snot, drool), and I was sick with a cough about 10 years ago. I don’t strengthen myself with anything, I lead a careless lifestyle: I go to bed after midnight, I have tons of coffee, I eat as I have to and what I have to, I don’t go in for sports.
My answer: Lucky.
A comment: I read that if a person does not have a "cold", then he is in a state of stress.
My answer: On the contrary, stress lowers the immune system.
A comment: There is no such disease as a cold. You are not a doctor if you use that term!
My answer: There is such a thing as the common cold. It is also called "common cold".
Comment: Any so-called "cold" is caused by various viruses, bacteria, etc. Having overcooled, a person lowers his immune status: and then he catches something... So, overcooling only immunity falls.
My answer: There is no cold from hypothermia. This is an old tale.
A comment:
There is no "cold" from hypothermia. I just wrote about this. It's strange that you don't understand. From hypothermia, only human immunity falls, followed by infection, DUE TO THE FALL OF IMMUNE.My answer: From hypothermia, infection does not occur. This is a tale.
A comment: You seem to have been told everything clearly, hypothermia is a factor, immunity has weakened, and then their own ones are activated, or infection from the outside !!!
My answer: Hypothermia is not a factor. Now, even specifically in textbooks, it is noted that exposure to cold does not lead to a cold. But it's still hard for people to get through.
A comment: "Cold" - there is no such disease, doctor, you should know this :-)
My answer: Yes, dear man. It's called "common cold" - the common cold. Remember, get used to and adapt. Everything is changing.
A comment: It's just in English "cold", but there is no such disease in the nosological list. There are SARS, rhinitis and other viral and bacterial diseases of the upper respiratory tract.
My answer: It's "simple" for you, but all over the world it's just in English. Remember, get used to and adapt. Everything is changing.
Question: That is, a cold is only of viral origin? And there is an opinion that ARVI is viral, and a cold is due to hypothermia. Not?
My answer: SARS = colds. Hypothermia has nothing to do with the common cold.
A comment: While living alone, one can say that he did not get sick at all. Now there are three children in the family. I get sick every year. Despite the fact that I consistently take a contrast shower, I drink vitamins. The immune system is a strange thing.
My answer: This is fine. Vitamins and showers have nothing to do with your immunity.
Question: Are there any golden rules for maintaining good immunity? Well, other than a good night's sleep?
My answer: Wash your hands, sneeze into your elbow. The rules don't have to be your fantasy. Relax and follow the rules.
Question: Did you come up with this yourself, or do you have links to authoritative sources?
My answer: I quoted ONE scientific study in 1958 in detail. Did you get the meaning of what you read? The uncle-doctor asked his acquaintances for access to the full text of the American article, he himself translated from English and laid it out for you in a simple form. Are you satisfied with this option? Has anyone else done this for you?
A comment: Influenza is a natural vaccine against serious ailments. After the flu, a cold is not terrible.
My answer: The flu is a killer, not a vaccine.
A comment: A cold is an exacerbation of chronic tonsillitis, for example, associated with hypothermia. What you are talking about is SARS.
My answer: From hypothermia there is no exacerbation of chronic tonsillitis. Chronic tonsillitis is not a cold. SARS is a cold.
A comment: COLD - a disease caused by the cooling of the body; such cooling.
My answer: The common cold is a respiratory infection caused by viruses. It happens more often during the cold season and is traditionally called a cold. In fact, exposure to cold does not lead to a cold.
A comment: Is it strange that you never caught a cold? Consequences of hypothermia: runny nose, sore throat, headache. If on the first day you take a hot bath, hot tea, gargle and sleep under two blankets, then on the second day everything is fine.
My answer: Nobody got so cold. This is a popular myth.
Question: Hypothermia weakens the body, and then the activation of viruses of one's own and others?
My answer: No.
