Myth: Can stilted legs cause high blood pressure?
Truth: Not really.
There is no direct causal relationship between stilted legs and hypertension. There are clear diagnostic criteria for hypertensive disorders, and elevated blood pressure includes both physiologic elevations and elevations in disease states, and not all elevated blood pressures are hypertensive.
When stilting the legs, the movement of crossing the legs may cause a transient increase in blood pressure, that is, a temporary increase in blood pressure, which is not a pathological increase in blood pressure and does not lead to hypertensive disease. Once the sitting position is no longer maintained, the blood pressure will return to normal.
The real harm of stilted legs is that it can easily lead to the misalignment of the pelvic bones and lumbar joints, which can cause low back and leg pain. Therefore, it is recommended that you try to maintain a correct sitting posture in your daily life, and at the same time get up regularly to avoid sitting for a long time.

Extinguishing the fire with water or soda when the oil pan catches fire?
Truth: When a fire breaks out in an oil pot at home, the fire will increase when water and soda are used to extinguish the fire. This is due to the fact that the low temperature of the water meets the high temperature of the oil, and the violent reaction forms a deflagration, which will cause damage to the human body. In daily life, oil pan fires are relatively common, and if not handled properly, it is easy to cause serious fire accidents. When extinguishing the fire in the oil pot, you should use the lid cover and wet towel cover, etc., and pay attention to protecting your hands and wrists to prevent being burned by high temperature.
