    Cat hair is not easy to suck into the lungs, because the defense mechanisms of people to prevent foreign bodies from entering the respiratory tract include nose hair, turbinate bones, and cilia of the trachea. However, for some people with allergies, inhaling cat hair may cause allergic reactions, so it is recommended that cat owners usually pay attention to cleaning the home environment to reduce the impact of cat hair on people.

    <>, you can rest assured that cat hair is generally not sucked into human lungs, so the remarks on the Internet that "if you raise a cat for a year, there will be 100,000 cat hairs in your lungs" is false, and you don't need to care too much.

    Why doesn't cat hair get sucked into the lungs?

    This is mainly due to the special structure of the human respiratory tract. The process of air from the nostrils to the lungs needs to pass through the nose hair, nasal cavity, nasal cilia and mucus layer four lines of defense, in the process of human breathing, most of the impurities in the air will be filtered out, to ensure that every breath of air you breathe is clean. Normally, only substances can enter our bronchi, and smaller substances will enter our lungs, and the smallest cat hair, there are 400 times more!

    Therefore, you don't have to worry about whether there will be cat hair in your lungs. If you want to suck the cat, you can suck the cat (except for patients with cat hair allergies).

    Will cat hair be eaten in the stomach?

    Although cat hair does not escape to the lungs, there is still a possibility of accidentally eating it into the stomach. Although most of the time, when we have hair in our mouth, we will have a noticeable strange sensation on our own, and we can spit it out on our own. However, if silky hairs are mixed in the food, it is not easy for humans to feel it when they chew food.

    Because cat hair is finer and shorter than humans, there may be a small amount of cat hair swallowed into the stomach along with food during our rapid chewing.

    But the shovelers don't have to worry, the cat hair in the stomach can generally be excreted normally through feces, and there is no need to worry that we will also have the same symptoms of spitting hairballs as cats.

    To sum up, cat hair will not have much impact on humans except for the fact that it will stick to our clothes and furniture. On the contrary, the cat itself is prone to serious cat hairball disease when licking its fur every day, so for the sake of the cat's health, the shovel officer should regularly comb the cat's hair and feed it with hair cream!

In addition, cat hair may enter the stomach, but don't underestimate people's digestive juices, not to mention cat hair, even general wool can be digested...

    You can rest assured, that little cat hair is not as harmful to you as the exhaust of a car on the road once.

    Post-coronary sequelae often have nasal congestion, after nasal congestion, mouth breathing, nose filtration fails, directly into the trachea filtration, what is the efficiency of tracheal filtration? Can 100% coughing and sneezing be discharged?
