Avoid physical attack in case of infections
Prevent physical ingestion of infections such as cold and diarrhea
Anyone who has an infection should cure him well and take a rest. Sporting activities and other attacks should be avoided in diarrhea or feverish infections. Because this can lead to diseases with life-threatening complications, such as a heart muscle inflammation.
In the cold season, there are more and more colds and flu infections. Sufferers complain of colds, general malaise, fever, cough, runny nose, diarrhea, sore throat and head and body aches. The best medicine in this case is really bed rest, resting, drinking a lot and getting enough sleep. The human organism needs strength to fight the pathogens and then to regenerate.
Failure to give the body the ability to do so or begin to stress the organism too early can lead to other complications. Because a not properly cured infection can lead to an inflammation of the heart muscle (myocarditis). These are often triggered by viruses (Coxsackie viruses). But other pathogens such as bacteria or other viral strains come as a trigger in question. Symptoms are mainly respiratory distress even with the smallest efforts, as well as tachycardia, heart stumbling and a global physical weakness. It is usually difficult to treat a viral cause, so it is really advisable to have bed rest and protection during an infection. This is also recommended in natural medicine and by the Professional Association of Established Cardiologists (BNK). (Thorsten Fischer, Naturopath Osteopathy, 27.01.2010)
