Cough, cough for a long time, what should I do?

Cough more than beware of Legionella.

Be careful when using air conditioners.

Mr. Zeng from Chongqing has been coughing non-stop recently, thinking that it was a general cold caused by the use of air conditioning, but he did not do it in time**, resulting in severe Legionella pneumonia. According to experts, "Legionella" is a pathogenic bacterium parasitic in air conditioning, which is difficult to natural after causing illness, so people who have been working in an air-conditioned environment for a long time should seek medical attention in time if they have cold symptoms.

Chongqing has had a continuous high temperature recently, and Mr. Zeng's office is ** air conditioner, and he has been turning on the air conditioner when he gets home from work. More than 10 days ago, he developed symptoms such as cold and fever. He thought it was a general "air-conditioning disease" and carried out a simple **, but after the symptoms of cold and fever were significantly relieved, he began to cough again.

Subsequently, he went to the Shimbashi Hospital of the Third Military Medical University for an examination and was diagnosed with Legionella pneumonia.

Li Qi, associate professor of respiratory medicine at Xinqiao Hospital, introduced that Legionella is a pathogenic bacterium that parasitizes the cooling water and duct system of air conditioners, enters the room through the vent, and it is mainly transmitted through the air and inhaled into the human body through the respiratory tract. Late summer and early autumn are the seasons with a high incidence of Legionnaires' disease, especially in modern office environments equipped with enclosed** air conditioning. Mild infections with Legionella can cause some common cold-like conditions, with milder symptoms that resolve on their own within a few days.

Severe infection can cause Legionella pneumonia, which is difficult to spontaneously**, and can lead to death in severe cases.

Associate Professor Li Qi reminded that people who have been working in an air-conditioned environment for a long time, once they have fever, cough, chest pain, poor breathing, etc., should not take a few cold medicines by themselves, but should seek medical examination in time to be vigilant against Legionnaires' disease. In addition, to prevent Legionella, it is necessary to pay attention to the ventilation of the indoor environment, clean the air conditioner regularly, and add disinfectant water to the waterway.
