What symptom does swimming chlorine allergy have?

Swimming in summer is more likely to get skin diseases. This is because high chlorine pool water can be sensitized. Because the general swimming pool water contains ammonia, chlorine and other disinfection components, in the case of a large number of people in the swimming pool, it will increase the concentration of disinfectants, and people allergic to disinfectants are prone to skin flushing, urticaria and other symptoms. There are also some women swimming after vaginal swelling, burning, and even inflammation or suffering from vulvar eczema, mainly because of improper disinfection of the swimming pool, caused by high chlorine concentration. In addition, we all know that the vast majority of skin diseases will not be transmitted through swimming, but when people who travel with them suffer from infectious skin diseases such as bacterial, viral and parasitic diseases, they may be transmitted to others through pool water. At the same time, cross infection in the pool water will also aggravate the condition of people with skin diseases. For example, patients with common bacterial skin diseases such as impetigo and pyoderma have a higher infection rate when their skin is damaged.

And suffer from fungal infectious skin diseases, such as: tinea versicolor, tinea pedis, tinea cruris and tinea corporis; Patients with parasitic diseases such as scabies; People with viral conjunctivitis, venereal diseases and other infectious diseases should not go to swimming pools. In addition, it is worth noting that skin diseases such as scabies, infectious soft warts, tinea pedis, and even some venereal diseases, which are transmitted through mutual contact, may be transmitted among contacts because of public slippers, bath towels, towels, etc. The incidence rate of otitis media after swimming is higher. The incidence rate of otitis media after swimming is higher, especially in children. The doctor in the outpatient department of the hospital said that although small accidents such as choking water and ear irrigation are common when swimming, if they are not handled properly, these small accidents may develop into otitis media, rhinitis, sinusitis and other diseases, which will bring us worries in our work and life

There are three main reasons for otitis media caused by swimming. First, the water in the swimming pool is directly poured into the external auditory canal, making the external auditory canal moist. Bacteria are easy to reproduce and grow, causing inflammation, invading the tympanic membrane, causing otitis media. Second, some people have a lot of cerumen in the external auditory canal. When they swim, the ear canal gets into water and the cerumen swells, causing ear blockage and discomfort. Improper ear digging after swimming causes ear injury and bacterial invasion, causing acute otitis externa and otitis media. Third, the pool water is sucked back due to choking water, and the sewage flows through the nose, nasopharynx and eustachian tube in turn to reach the middle ear cavity. In this way, the bacteria in the sewage and nasal cavity are brought into the middle ear, causing otitis media.

matters needing attention

Knowing the principle, we can have a definite aim. When swimming, we should pay attention to the following details to prevent diseases: first of all, we should choose a regular swimming pool that meets the health standard. Under normal circumstances, standing by the swimming pool of the swimming pool, you can smell the faint smell of chlorine. If too much chlorine is added, it will produce a pungent taste, and if too little chlorine is added, it will not smell chlorine. It is suggested that you choose a high-quality natatorium with good sanitary conditions, clear water quality and moderate chlorine smell. Secondly, before swimming, you can go to the regular hospital otolaryngology specialist to check the external auditory canal. If there is cerumen embolism, clean it up in time.
