To prevent dry skin and lips caused by air conditioning, as well as dehydration, there are a few simple steps you can take. Using a humidifier in the room can help add moisture to the air, while drinking plenty of water is essential for staying hydrated. Applying moisturizer to your skin can also prevent dryness, and limiting time spent in air-conditioned environments can reduce its impact on your skin and lips.
According to Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Nhu Vinh, Head of the Department of Respiratory Function Investigation at Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, the dry air produced by air conditioning can lead to dehydration and dry skin and lips. To minimize these effects, it is important to set the right temperature in your room, keep it well ventilated, and regularly clean the air filter to prevent the spread of bacteria and viruses.
In addition to these measures, it is important to stay hydrated by drinking enough water throughout the day and avoiding direct exposure to cold air. Adjusting the lighting in your room can also help reduce the feeling of heat caused by air conditioning. If you are experiencing health issues related to air conditioning use, it is recommended to consult a medical professional for appropriate advice and treatment.
