Five kinds of infectious diseases while in swimming
Due to the imperfect disinfection system of some natatoriums, the health examination of former Bai swimmers is not standardized, which has laid a hidden danger for the spread of some infectious diseases.
1. Eye infectious diseases
Red eye disease, which is called "acute conjunctivitis" in medicine, has an infection rate twice that of January every year from June to August, and the majority of the patients are frequent swimmers. The reason is that the swimming pool without adequate disinfection is an important way of transmission. Red eye disease can be transmitted by contact. It is highly infectious and spreads rapidly. Hands, towels and water infected with the virus can become vectors. In addition, Chlamydia trachomatis can also be transmitted through swimming pool water, so that healthy people suffer from trachoma.
When the eye has itching, foreign body or burning sensation, especially fear of light, conjunctival congestion, purulent or mucinous secretions, you should seek medical advice immediately and choose eye medicine under the guidance of the doctor; at the same time, keep a distance from others consciously, and do not go to the public swimming pool for swimming, so as to avoid infecting others and aggravating the disease. Healthy people to the public swimming pool, should pay attention not to share bath products with others, do not rub eyes with hands when swimming.
2. Skin infectious diseases
In swimming, attention should be paid to the prevention of skin diseases, such as abscess sores caused by bacterial infection, which will form honey yellow pulp scab after ulceration, which will be infectious once contacted; and the superficial fungal infection of skin, including tinea cruris, beriberi, grey nails, etc., is also very easy to infect through slippers and towels; if there are gonorrhea patients with the strongest infectivity in swimming pool, healthy people may suffer from anterior urine Urinary tract infection; in addition, scabies, infectious soft wart, in the bath and sauna massage is also easy to infect.
Therefore, swimmers should bring their own towel, slippers, bath towel and other items before swimming. After swimming, they should take a bath in time, and use some iodine containing lotion to dilute the skin and then wash it off.
3. Gynecological diseases
In addition to swimming pools, bathrooms can also be a source of pollution. Almost every swimmer will take a shower in it, because the sanitary conditions and equipment are not perfect, towel and other bath products are often put on the railing and faucet. This is very easy to spread diseases, especially for people with weak resistance. At the same time, it also brings the hidden danger of infectious gynecological diseases, such as unclean tissue, bath products, sanitary ware and so on.
4. Dirty water into the ear is easy to cause inflammation
It is easy to get water into the ears when swimming. For people with earwax or ear disease, dirty water staying in the ear will soften the earwax, block up the ear and pus, and cause inflammation of the external auditory canal and middle ear, such as suppurative otitis media, acute otitis media, acute otitis media, and even perforation of the tympanic membrane. In order to prevent this, the water in the ear should be drained after swimming. In addition, when swimming choking water, do not blow your nose hard, or eustachian tube expansion, dirty things will follow the eustachian tube into the ear, causing inflammation. Some digestive tract infectious diseases belong to the "disease from the mouth" of digestive tract infectious diseases is also a health risk of non-standard swimming pool, people will inevitably choke water when swimming, bacillary dysentery, infectious diarrhea, viral hepatitis and other bacteria enter the mouth and stomach of the human body with water, there is a risk of disease.
