Why do chronic diseases worsen in spring?
Spring is associated not only with the beginning of a new period, flowers or the beginning of work in the garden.
The fact is that for some people this time of year is associated with illness.
Therapist Elena Popova noted in an interview with RT that chronic diseases do indeed worsen during this time, and problems with the gastrointestinal tract are especially common: chronic gastritis, colitis, enteritis, and gastric ulcers.
Most often this is related to nutrition.
After all, in winter a person receives fewer vitamins, immunity decreases, and a period of diets can also begin, when some try to lose weight for the summer, but choose diets without prior consultation.
In addition, chronic stress may appear against this background.
The specialist also added that the body is more vulnerable to viruses and bacteria, which means that this can also lead to an allergy to spring flowering.
