Air conditioning can have negative effects on our skin and overall health, including dryness and dehydration. To prevent these issues, it is important to take a few simple steps. Firstly, using a humidifier in the room can help add moisture to the air and reduce the impact of dry air produced by air conditioning. Secondly, drinking plenty of water throughout the day is essential to staying hydrated. Thirdly, applying moisturizer to the skin can also help prevent dryness. Lastly, limiting time spent in air-conditioned environments can reduce exposure to cold air and help maintain good indoor air quality.
According to Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Nhu Vinh, Head of the Department of Respiratory Function Investigation at Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, it is important to set the right temperature in the room and keep it well ventilated when using air conditioning. Regular cleaning of the air filter can also help prevent the spread of bacteria and viruses. In addition to these measures, avoiding direct exposure to cold air and adjusting lighting in the room can also help reduce heat caused by air conditioning. If you are experiencing health issues related to air conditioning use, consulting a medical professional for appropriate advice and treatment is recommended.
