Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease- a silent killer
Comfort and illness
Comfort can cause non-comforting problems- yes that is true in case of luxury items like air conditioner, fridge, cooler, electric bulbs, wall paints and even journeys in a car, which discharge dangerous chemicals and harm breathing system. Even long time spent in traveling in a car is health risk for different releases coming from different systems of a car especially AC car. The topic of discussion is indoor equipment gadgets and other daily use facilities those proving silent killer without our knowledge.
Most of us know that the reason behind breathing problems lie in infectious bacteria but very few of us are aware that almost all of us get the infection inside closed doors within safety of our own homes. This happens due to release of dangerous gases and chemicals released by number of equipment used in each home and the most harmful of them all are air conditioners and refrigerator releasing coolant gases and contents like ammonia discharge harmful chemicals as combined effect. People in India suffer from breathing problems while still inside the safety of their homes.
How these facilities effect adversely
The equipment and other facilities available within closed doors including fridge, air conditioners, wall paints, inverters etc containing chemicals discharge dangerous gases those cause chronic obstructive pulmonary and other as complicated diseases, which effect in the long run causing different problems to heart, lungs breathing tube called endotracheal. These problems cause respiratory system a serious damage, which may ultimately turn chronic and serious health risk.
Paint on walls cause volatile organic compounds, radon gases, which are densest gases coming from cooling equipment, heaters discharge monoxide and your other sources of comfort may release nitrates, nitrous oxide and other hydrocarbon gases. All chemicals used for floor- cleaning, polish, air fresheners, mosquito and insects repellents, rugs and upholstery, oven, dry-cleaning etc contain harmful ingredients, which cause serious breathing problem causing damage to breathing tubes in different ways also may cause cancer and serious heart diseases.
Smoke
Smoke inside a house is a common reason for excitement of neutophils in breathing tube that results in breaking elastase enzymes ultimately damaging lungs to a great extent. Women using conventional cooking methods of wood and coal are at greater risk than woman with modern use of LPG and proper ventilation system. Men with smoking habits become more effected with combined effects of paint, printer, tube light, AC, fridge and cigarette etc easily.
You should do to prevent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Chronic obstructive pulmonary is a disease that has no permanent treatment and a patient can only have relief by treatment that will improve his condition and can make his breathing better. A regular treatment while the disease is still in primary stage and removal of causes, which harm him, can improve his condition to a certain extent. Once the reason is known and causes removed he can breath better, his heart can pump blood better and he can perform his daily life functions better with little extra care and efforts.
The number of patients of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are increasing at a rapid speed in India due to lifestyle, nuclear families living in smaller homes using each and every gadgets available including AC, Fridge, inverter, vacuum cleaner, washing machines, carpet cleaners, ovens, coolers, TV, laptops, etc which are the major cause of this dreaded disease. The use of these items is not a problem if a proper space and ventilation is available but the use of all these items in a limited space with no provision of proper exhaust system may cause immense problems related to health. Keep equipment, which exhaust gases out of the living area to prevent more damages to your health.
