8 ways to protect yourself from covid infection in cold

8 ways to protect yourself from covid infection in cold


The cold weather has already begun. The coronavirus, which is believed to be more active in cold weather, has affected the lives of ordinary Nepalis at this time. There is a situation where one cannot walk freely.


Corona infection can also be transmitted to a friend who lives in your own home or works in an office. That is a state of anxiety for both. But in this case, what can we do to avoid infection from a friend?



1. Check


If someone in your home has been confirmed to have a corona infection, it is best to get tested for corona immediately. The medical director of Los Angeles, Dr. Scott Branstein says: "Even though we have a negative test report, we still have to look at ourselves as potentially infected, rather than thinking we're safe." If someone tells you not to take the test until you see the symptoms, you have to stay in quarantine for 14 days. If he shows no symptoms for two weeks, he may feel safe until then.


2. Restrict contact


Officials at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say the only way to avoid the epidemic is to limit contact.


A person who is infected with corona should be kept as separate as possible from others. If possible, separate bedrooms and toilets can be provided for corona infections.


Even when staying at home, you should keep a distance of 3 feet with your family members. According to experts, reducing contact means that even if you come close to the infected person in some way, there will be no severe infection.


You can also take full care of a person infected with corona but enter their location as needed. For example, bringing food to the infected person from a distance, not staying in the same room with the infected person for a long time, only going to the infected person's room using safety equipment, etc.


3. Do not obstruct airflow


Always keep the windows and doors of your living room open. This means that a possible corona infection brought by someone in a room should not be transmitted to other people in the same room.


4. Wear a mask


The mask is essential for both infected and non-infected parties. The World Health Organization has mentioned the criteria of the mask and the way it is worn. Doctors say that even if you wear a disciplined mask according to the criteria, you can avoid coronavirus infection to a great extent. ‘All members of the household, especially the infected person, should be encouraged to wear mandatory masks. The mask helps prevent infections that can come from an infected person's nose and mouth.


However, wearing a mask does not guarantee 100 percent protection against the contraction of the coronavirus. But to a large extent, it helps prevent corona. Doctors have also mentioned the quality of the mask. Cloth masks are also said to be suitable if the quality is met. But no matter what the mask is, it is mandatory to cover the nose and mouth completely. Also, you should wear glasses for safety.


5. Wash hands, kill germs


Washing your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds is also a way to prevent the coronavirus. Especially patients have to wash their hands. Use hand sanitizer containing at least 60% alcohol where soapy water is not readily available.


6. Eat healthy food


It has been found that many people in Nepal drink gurja water during the coronavirus epidemic. But not only that, eating healthy and nutritious food is essential for health.


However, the most important thing is to eat a healthy diet and lose weight, not to feel comfortable in times of stress and uncertainty. With the right lifestyle, we can defeat the coronavirus. Healthy eating helps prevent serious illness.


7. Rely on reliable sources


Friends, family, and social media can be a source of information. But what is the way to avoid the corona epidemic by following the official information? How to deal with people who are corona positive, what to eat after being positive, and what not to eat? An official source of information should be sought for information on such matters.


A lot of misinformation can come on social media and the internet. Such information can be dangerous.


8. Consult and consult with a friend


Friends find it easier to express their feelings during difficult times. Work with such friends to get advice and suggestions.

General rules to protect the kidneys

General rules to protect the kidneys


The function of the kidneys is to purify the blood in the body. When kidney function is impaired, the body becomes toxic. One load after another is added. Eventually, the whole body becomes weak and sick.


The treatment of kidney disease is cumbersome. Not only cumbersome but also expensive. Not only expensive but in some cases even impossible.


Doctors say that our bad habits cause kidney disease. Our diet is the cause of kidney disease. Some people have congenital kidney disease, while others have kidney disease due to external causes.


It is better to have kidney health than to seek treatment for kidney disease. For this, we need to change our habits.



Reduce salt intake


Salt is high in sodium. Excessive sodium intake can cause high blood pressure in the body. While many kidney problems are caused by high blood pressure, high blood pressure also causes kidney problems.


Not only that, but the consumption of too much salt also increases the chances of kidney stones. And, if you have kidney stones, if not treated in time, it can damage the kidneys.


Adequate water intake


Adequate water intake is essential to keep the kidneys healthy. Drinking three to four liters of water a day helps the kidneys excrete toxins from the body. But it is important to pay attention to the fact that even more than the required amount can affect the kidneys.


To control the disease


In the case of diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart-related problems, the disease should be controlled by taking medicine immediately in consultation with the doctor. Because many of these types of diseases affect the kidneys first, it is important to control various diseases in the body to keep the kidneys healthy.


Do not stop urinating


The best way to keep your kidneys healthy is to stop urinating or to urinate from time to time. Prolonged retention of urine can harm the kidneys. Also, having less urine, less than two liters of urine can also harm the kidneys, so it is important to keep the kidneys healthy and to see if there is any problem in the kidneys.


Balanced diet


Lately, people have been suffering from kidney-related problems at an early age due to poor diet, excessive consumption of junk food, and dehydration. Therefore, it is important to consume nutritious food including vitamins, minerals, and proteins to keep the kidneys healthy.


Eating a nutritious and balanced diet provides proper nutrition to the kidneys and increases its efficiency. While unhealthy, inedible and chemically mixed foods available in the market harm the kidneys and reduce its efficiency.


Consumption of liquids


Adequate water intake is just as important as fluid intake to keep the kidneys healthy. In particular, fruit juices, lentils, and other beverages provide the body with adequate amounts of fluids.


These fluids contain all the essential nutrients that the body needs. Consumption of soft drinks, tea, and coffee available in the market can adversely affect the kidneys. Therefore, it is important to always be careful not to consume such liquids.


Medicine


Not only kidney patients but also common people should always take the medicine only after consulting a doctor before taking it. Just like in any pain, you should not take happy medicine. It can damage the kidneys badly.


Smoking and alcohol


Smoking and alcohol can also affect the kidneys. Smoking and alcohol poison the body. Due to which the kidneys lose their ability to work.


Obesity


Research has shown that even obese people have a higher risk of developing kidney disease. This risk is twice as high in obese people as in normal people. Therefore, it is important to avoid obesity to avoid kidney-related diseases.


Regular health check-ups


The best way to prevent kidney damage is to have regular health checkups. Regular tests of urine, blood, and kidneys can prevent kidney-related diseases. Also, if someone in the family has diabetes, high blood pressure, heart attack, and cancer, regular health check-ups after the age of 30 can prevent kidney-related diseases and even serious diseases through early screening.
