The Dhaka Times Desk Many were relieved by an immediate tip when oxygen saturation dropped. However, there are downsides to sleeping in this position regularly.
It's fun to get lost in another world while reading a novel. However, many people say that the practice of sleeping with pressure on the stomach is not good at all. It also damages the waist and neck. However, many prefer to sleep in this position to get rid of respiratory problems or snoring problems. So which issue will give more importance?
Doctors said that many people may have noticed during the epidemic that is, corona, that many patients were kept lying down to get relief from respiratory problems. Many find immediate relief from this trick when oxygen saturation drops. However, there are downsides to sleeping in this position regularly. According to them, lying on the back does not provide as much space as the lungs should expand during inhalation. Due to which there may be difficulty in breathing. In medical terms this is called 'hypoplasia'. In some cases, this hypoplasia can be fatal. From which death can also occur.
Orthopedic doctors say that if one sleeps on his back with his head on the pillow, there is also a chance of neck injury. The spinal cord, which holds the entire structure of the body, starts just after the brain and joins with it at the waist. Therefore, if you keep your neck on the pillow and rotate it side to side, there is a possibility of injury to the lumbar spine, i.e. the disc at the very end of the spine. You may suffer from neck or back pain despite not doing heavy work. Moreover, if one goes to sleep with pressure on the stomach after eating a full stomach, in that case his digestion may also be disturbed. So everyone should take care of this matter.

How to prevent dengue
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).
Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.
1. Common dengue fever
2. Dengue fever with bleeding.
In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-
1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.
2. Severe headache.
3. Pain behind the eyes.
4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.
5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.
6. Nausea or vomiting.
7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.
In case of dengue fever with bleeding:
1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.
2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.
If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
On the other hand
Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.
Things to do to prevent Dengue:
1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.
2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.
3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.
4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.
5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.
6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.
7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.
8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
