During cold weather, people may experience a number of health problems, mainly due to prolonged exposure or working in cold environments or sudden changes in environmental temperature.

The main causes are prolonged exposure or working in cold environments or sudden changes in environmental temperature.
Some people at high risk of health problems in cold weather are the elderly, children and pregnant women, people who work outdoors or in cold, windy environments with little sunlight, people with chronic diseases such as high blood pressure, asthma, cardiovascular disease, musculoskeletal system, etc.
Especially, in cold weather days, people need to pay attention to dangerous symptoms of the body such as: headache, dizziness, chest tightness, discomfort, numbness in limbs... When these symptoms appear, people need to keep their body warm immediately and go to a medical facility for a health check.
Cold weather puts extra strain on the heart; therefore, people with heart disease and high blood pressure should check and follow the advice of a specialist. Blood pressure should be checked and monitored regularly, even for young people and those without a history of heart disease or high blood pressure.
