The sanatorium doctor recommends: How does polluted air affect the respiratory system?
Published by : Милана
Every day, our lungs pass through thousands of liters of air. However, along with oxygen, dust, exhaust gases, smoke and other harmful particles can enter the body, which negatively affect the health of the respiratory system.
With prolonged exposure to polluted air, the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract becomes irritated, its protective function decreases, dryness, cough and a feeling of lack of air appear. Over time, the risk of developing chronic respiratory diseases increases and the ability of the lungs to fully perform their work decreases.
It is especially important to protect lung health for people with chronic respiratory diseases, children, the elderly, and those who live or work in conditions of high air pollution.
Regular physical activity, smoking cessation, outdoor walks, breathing exercises and timely preventive examinations help to maintain the health of the respiratory system.
Spa treatment also plays an important role in strengthening the respiratory system. Clean air, a favorable climate, physical therapy, physiotherapy procedures and individually selected wellness programs contribute to improving lung function, strengthening immunity and overall body recovery.
Taking care of lung health today is a contribution to free breathing, well—being and a high quality of life for many years to come.
