Computer-Related Conditions (1): Screen Face
Causes:
Relying on computers for every task, leading to expressionless faces and dull complexions.
Relief Methods:
1. Keep the computer area clutter-free to prevent dust from adhering to skin;
2. Apply moisturizer before using the computer;
3. Clean the keyboard regularly.
Recent research reveals yogurt also mitigates radiation damage and prevents post-radiation lymphocyte depletion. Consuming yogurt after lunch reduces computer radiation harm.
How "Computer Users" Achieve Healthy, Radiant Skin: To attain healthy, beautiful skin, computer users must identify underlying causes of skin issues and implement adequate protection and care.
Computer-related ailment (II): Cankles
Causes:
Sitting for extended periods often leads to leg swelling and visible veins on the calves—potential precursors to varicose veins.
Relief methods:
1. Seek medical attention immediately if experiencing leg heaviness or swelling;
2.Stand up every hour and perform 10 simple squats to improve venous return in the lower limbs.
Computer-Related Condition (3): Mouse Hand
Causes:
Years of prolonged overtime work can cause pain and numbness in the index or middle finger, along with sluggishness and weakness in the thumb muscles, leading to "carpal tunnel syndrome."
Relief Methods:
1. Avoid prolonged, repetitive, or mechanical movements of the upper limbs;
2. When using a mouse, keep your arm supported to reduce wrist pressure;
3. Avoid striking keyboard or mouse buttons with excessive force.
Computer-Related Condition (IV): Cervical Spondylosis
Causes:
If you work with arms raised high and head tilted downward, you may experience lower back pain and shoulder numbness after just one hour.
Relief Methods:
1. Keep your neck warm in air-conditioned rooms;
2. Use a slightly lower pillow and ensure your computer desk doesn't exceed 70 cm in height;
3. Perform neck exercises twice daily.Computer-Related Symptom (5): Dry Eye Syndrome Causes: Staring intently at a computer screen for 8 hours straight, then continuing to battle in online games at home, leads to eye soreness and dryness, ultimately causing dry eye syndrome.
Relief Methods:
1. Maintain a distance of at least 70 cm from the monitor;
2. Adjust screen brightness to a comfortable level;
3. Ensure room lighting matches screen brightness during work.
Computer-Related Condition (VI): Electromagnetic Radiation Hazards
Causes:
Excessive monitor heat generates significant electromagnetic radiation during operation. This ionizes the air, continuously producing positive charges (positive ions) that neutralize negative ions in the environment, reducing negative ion levels to near zero. Prolonged exposure to an environment with excessive positive ions can cause insomnia, weakened immunity, and endocrine disorders in women.
Mitigation Methods:
1. Thoroughly clean the office environment;
2. Avoid positioning your monitor's rear toward a colleague's back or side;
3. Regularly drink green tea and wash your face;
4. Place a potted plant or water container under the desk to absorb electromagnetic waves;
5. Opt for LCD monitors whenever possible.Computer-Related Symptom (7): Skin Allergies Causes: A static electric field forms around a powered-on monitor, attracting airborne dust particles throughout the room. This can irritate facial skin, leading to allergic reactions like rashes.
Relief Methods:
1. Avoid piling papers and documents around the computer;
2. Wipe the computer desk surface with a damp cloth dipped in an anti-static agent;
3. Ventilate the room frequently by opening windows;
4. Place a cactus on the desk, as its spines can absorb dust;
5. Clean the keyboard regularly. Wash hands before eating after using the keyboard. Cover the keyboard with a cloth when not in use.Computer-Related Illness (8): Diminished Brain Function Causes: With the increasing prevalence of personal computers, more people are experiencing memory decline. This primarily stems from excessive reliance on computers, which paradoxically weakens their own brain functions. Relief Methods: 1. Ensure adequate sleep; practice quiet meditation.
