Is it true that humidifiers can cause pneumonia?

I don't think that's true, the cause of pneumonia must be some bacteria and viruses or something, and humidifiers can't produce viruses.

Air humidifier can increase indoor humidity, but can also purify the air, but improper use may bring potential safety hazards, because of the air humidifier and the pneumonia is also called "humidifier pneumonia" is due to the air humidifier for too long, the water source in the humidifier is not clean, the humidifier is not often cleaned or the humidity in the ventilation room is not often opened, resulting in the rapid growth and spread of bacteria after the pneumonia is caused.

This thing must be true, because humidifiers can easily harbor bacteria, and it is easy to cause upper respiratory tract infections during humidification, which can lead to pneumonia, which is normal.

One, be vigilant! 4 college students who returned to Beijing had fever at the same time, how was the humidification pneumonia caused?

The new crown epidemic has been prepared, and the fever clinic of Beijing You'an Hospital, which has been busy, has also slowed down, but the recent arrival of four returning college students has broken the tranquility here. Clinically, their body temperature was 38 to 38, and some of them were accompanied by sore throat, but there were no symptoms such as cough and sputum, abdominal pain and diarrhea, frequent urination and urgency. Could it be a cluster outbreak?

The Department of Respiratory and Infectious Diseases of Beijing You'an Hospital immediately reported the situation to the hospital's Epidemic Office. The results of the laboratory examination came out quickly, and the new crown nucleic acid and antibodies of the 4 college students were all negative, and the chest CT was not abnormal. Based on experience, Liu Zengli asked the four students if they had used humidifiers or air conditioners, and it was quickly clear:

Because the air in the dormitory was too dry, they had been using humidifiers. When cleaning the humidifier, I just scalded it with hot water and then added tap water to use it. "This is another classic case of humidifying pneumonia!

> humidifier is likely to cause harm if it is not used properly, and it is easy to cause pneumonia When the weather is dry in winter, many people like to use humidifiers, and they have not cleaned the humidifier well before using the humidifier, and add tap water directly to the humidifier, so use it.

If the humidifier is not cleaned and disinfected properly, there is a high chance that there are bacteria inside, and the bacteria will sneak into people's respiratory tract with the humidifier, causing pneumonia. After using the humidifier, you must open the window to ventilate, and you can only add pure water and some distilled water to the humidifier, do not add some other substances in it, and the humidifier must be placed away from people.

The humidifier must be changed every day, and it cannot be tap water, if it is pure water or distilled water, and then it must be cleaned once a week to eliminate the poison. You can't be greedy for cheap humidifiers, and buying those cheap goods may cause more harm to the human body.

And this pneumonia has a new term called "humidifier pneumonia". Faced with such a diagnosis, the young mother was stunned, and under the introduction of the doctor, she realized that this pneumonia was caused by a humidifier, so it was called humidifier pneumonia. The water in the humidifier needs to be changed every day, preferably purified water, and the humidifier should be cleaned once a week.

As long as this is the case, there is no environment for bacteria, molds, and actinomycetes to grow and multiply.

<>First of all, the water in the humidifier must be changed once a day, and the water in the humidifier must be purified water for drinking. The reason for using pure water is that pure water, which turns into a water mist, is healthier and cleaner when inhaled into the human body. When I'm old, I'm prone to rheumatism or something, and I'm not very happy about it, and it's hard to say anything.

But as the old saying goes: if you don't listen to the old man, you have to be careful to get the true meaning. I have to say that most of the things my mother warned me that I didn't listen to were fulfilled.

Improper use of humidifiers can indeed cause respiratory diseases. When using a humidifier, you must change the water frequently, clean it regularly, and add boiled cold boiled water or purified water to the humidifier to ensure that it has a clean humidification function. It is reported that this disease, which doctors call "humidifier pneumonia", is similar to the common "air conditioning disease" in summer, and is caused by harmful microorganisms entering the human respiratory tract through the air and causing inflammation.

As a result, every family generally enters the closed period of the room, resulting in the peak period of indoor air pollution, in which the indoor air is dry, so that we all generally use humidifiers to increase indoor humidity, in anticipation of improving indoor humidity, thereby improving indoor air quality!

It's always uncomfortable, and in order to make the environment a little more humidified, we always buy a humidifier in our home to help relieve the feeling of dryness. It seems to be good for your health, but it invisibly damages your health and causes pneumonia. Once winter arrives, the air becomes unusually dry, and the cold air continues to move south these days.

Not to mention the two babies at home, Mr. Xiaoyou's rough skin and wear-resistant old legs are already dry and chapped, and when you take a hot bath at night, the stinging is definitely sour enough.

It can cause pneumonia, so don't go too far from people when using a humidifier to cause pneumonia, so don't get too close to people when using a humidifier, and put it in some distance as much as possible.

Absolutely. The humidifier can not directly use tap water, but pure water, and the humidity is adjusted according to the weather, so the humidifier should be placed in a high place, and must be kept away from the power supply, so as not to cause leakage accidents.

If it will cause pneumonia, the water when using the humidifier should be purified water, and the humidifier should not be too close to the human body.

It can be in the form of medicine**, or through dietary therapy**, you need to drink more water and eat some fruits in your daily life.

It will cause a sore throat and be very dry, at this time you can eat more vegetables and fruits, pay attention to hydration, and you can **.

Understand the way, pay attention to the method, according to the doctor's advice, or according to the reaction to pneumonia.

Excessive humidification and lack of cleanliness and hygiene of humidifiers are related to the induction of respiratory diseases. When using a humidifier, care must be taken to cleanliness and hygiene. Indoor air is dry, there will be dry throat, dry and other discomforts, the use of humidifiers can improve air humidity, if it can cause pneumonia, unless the humidifier breeds too many bacteria, microorganisms, just like air conditioning can cause Legionella pneumonia.

Some households use humidifiers that are turned on 24 hours a day. Harmful microorganisms in the air enter the human respiratory tract, and people with weak resistance will be infected with humidifier pneumonia. However, in general, if you have enough resistance, the possibility of causing pneumonia will be relatively small.

Introduction: When the weather gets colder, many people will choose to stay indoors or turn on the heating, but this will also lead to more and more drier, and the whole environment will become worse. So it will lead to a series of questions, in this case, people start to buy humidifiers, will humidifiers cause lung damage?

What are your thoughts on this?

Theoretically, humidifiers are not harmful to the lungs, because humidifiers actually turn water into water vapor, and then make the humidity of the air reach the ideal position, which can also make the air healthier. However, if the water used in the humidifier is unclean or bacteria have entered it, the humidifier also uses a mist that allows the body to inhale it. In this way, it actually damages the health of the lungs and will make the whole bacteria more evenly distributed, which will have a certain impact on the elderly and children.

In this case, it also shows that the humidifier can cause lung damage, and some people may pour the disinfectant into it during the use of the humidifier, but the disinfectant may have an effect on the lungs. It is recommended that the water in the humidifier should still use mineral water, do not use other water with bacteria, and the humidifier must be cleaned in time.

In winter, when the weather is cold, many people turn on the heating, but if the air in the room is not replaced for a long time, it will also have a certain effect. Therefore, in winter, it is necessary to properly open the windows for ventilation, so that it can be purified in time, reduce the carbon dioxide concentration of indoor air, and make people's bodies healthier. In winter, it's best to open between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., so that your room can soak in fresh air.

In addition, it is important to note that if you sleep in winter, there will be a small slit when you sleep, so that you can make your body healthier.

Yes. I think the lungs of the humidifier have some damage, and if the air humidity is too high, there will be some problems in the lungs.

The humidifier will damage the lungs, if the humidifier is not cleaned for a long time, and the choice of unhygienic water humidification will lead to damage to the lungs, so be sure to humidify it with purified water, and the humidifier should also be cleaned regularly.

No, I think this sentence is particularly incorrect, humidifiers will only make the air in the home extra humid, and it will also improve the air quality.

Today I will answer the question about whether humidifiers can cause lung damage? What do you think about this? Here's my understanding of the topic.

Nowadays, many people are concerned about quality of life. If they feel that the indoor air is dry, they add an air humidifier to artificially humidify the air. However, if the humidifier is not used properly, it is likely to cause pneumonia and deserves our attention.

If you want to use your humidifier correctly, you need to wash it frequently. There are generally two types of humidifiers on the market, namely cold evaporative humidifiers and ultrasonic atomization humidifiers.

Cold evaporative humidifiers diffuse water into the air in gaseous form, so impurities and bacteria in the water are generally not released into the air, but if the sink is not cleaned in time, harmful microorganisms such as scale and bacteria will still accumulate, and the indoor environment will still be polluted. The other is an ultrasonic atomizing humidifier, which will enter the air with the mist if there are bacteria in the water. Therefore, the water tank should be cleaned frequently, and the water added to the humidifier is preferably pure water or distilled water of relatively high quality.

Occasionally, there are news reports of pneumonia caused by improper use of humidifiers, indicating that it is important to pay attention to the cleaning of humidifier sinks.

In order to properly use the humidifier, do not add essential oils, aromatherapy, antiseptics, or other substances to the humidifier at will. Because the structure of different humidifiers varies greatly, there are some gaps or curved parts, so we can't completely clean them when washing. Therefore, when we add other substances other than water, it is easy to contaminate the sink due to improper cleaning of the sink.

Moreover, essential oils, aromatherapy, fungicides, etc. are added. It will make the particles in the air larger, which will increase the breathing burden of people indoors.

When using a humidifier, be careful to open windows for ventilation at the right time. When using a humidifier, not only pay attention to how clean the humidifier sink is, but also keep the indoor air fresh, and open the windows regularly for ventilation when the air is good. Are you still satisfied today?

Humidifiers can cause lung damage. The main view on this is that an unclean air humidifier will lead to the breeding of bacteria, because when the human body inhales air containing pathogens, it will lead to the occurrence of diseases, so the use of air humidifiers must be cleaned and disinfected in time to avoid the occurrence of infection.

It may cause some damage. Because I think this kind of thing will definitely be unhygienic after being used for a long time.

Yes, so at this time, you must clean the humidifier in time, and don't use the humidifier often, and then you must choose a high-end one, and you must add some pure water to the humidifier.

Generally speaking, if the humidifier causes pneumonia, you can claim compensation from the merchant or manufacturer who purchased the humidifier. In general, the purchaser can request the merchant or manufacturer to compensate the purchaser for medical expenses, nursing expenses, lost work income, etc.

First of all, the purchaser should issue a medical record certificate to the merchant or manufacturer to prove that their illness is caused by the humidifier. Secondly, the merchant or manufacturer can be required to issue a relevant proof of purchase to prove that the purchaser has purchased the humidifier. Finally, the merchant or manufacturer can be required to issue a quality inspection report to prove that the quality of the humidifier meets the standards stipulated by the state.

Through the above steps, the purchaser can claim compensation from the merchant or manufacturer. If the merchant or manufacturer is unwilling to provide compensation, the purchaser can file a complaint with the local consumer rights protection department to protect his legitimate rights and interests.
