Why is it necessary to distinguish between these diseases?
The group of people with weakened immune systems includes pensioners and children, people with chronic diseases. This means that their immune system is most susceptible to attack by pathogens. An incorrect diagnosis can lead to deterioration in the functioning of the entire body and incorrect treatment.
Due to influenza, the natural functions of the immune system are weakened, against the background of this, other infections can join and develop. These are mainly respiratory tract infections: the lungs are affected by streptococcal or staphylococcal flora. This contributes to the development of pneumonia, pulmonary hemorrhage, and edema.
Influenza in adults can be complicated by the development of sinusitis, sinusitis, pericarditis and acute cardiovascular failure. Influenza in children is complicated by otitis media, focal pneumonia, and bronchitis.
4. Treatment of hypothermia
The need for medical treatment of hypothermia depends on the severity of hypothermia. Treatment for mild hypothermia involves first getting out of the cold or damp environment and restoring body temperature with warm blankets, space heaters, heating pads, and hot water bottles. It is not recommended to immediately place a person with hypothermia in hot water. Such a radical measure is hard on the heart and can cause arrhythmia. In addition to external measures, you can give the person a warm drink. But it should not be alcohol or coffee.
Treatment for moderate to severe hypothermia usually occurs in a hospital, where doctors use special techniques to treat hypothermia and fever.
