On a cold winter day, Li Ming, an ordinary postman, was sitting by the fire at home to keep warm.
As an ordinary postman in the eyes of people, Li Ming's life is full of regularity and monotony.
However, on this seemingly ordinary afternoon, his life is about to be changed by a small accident.
"Ouch!" Li Ming accidentally burned the back of his hand on the stove. The pain drove him immediately to the community hospital to treat his wounds.
When he hurriedly walked into the hospital, he was surprised to find that the hospital was holding a health lecture.
The topic of the lecture was about the importance of human health, especially leg health. The lecture was presided over by an experienced veteran doctor, who made the boring medical knowledge lively and interesting with a humorous and witty tone.
Li Ming originally just wanted to treat the wound and leave, but the old doctor's witty words and seductive topics attracted him.
He decided to stay and listen, but he didn't expect him to benefit greatly from this decision.
The old doctor began to tell a point of view that sounded like it had nothing to do with leg health, but it actually had a lot to do with it. He said, "You know what, a smile is one of the secrets to keeping your legs healthy!" There was a snickering in the room, and everyone thought the doctor was joking.
But the old doctor's next explanation surprised everyone.
He explained in detail the relationship between a smile and leg health.
"When we laugh, not only the muscles of the face are exercised, but the blood circulation of the whole body is also improved.
This is especially important for blood circulation in the legs.
Legs are known as the body's 'second heart' because they help blood flow back to the heart through the constant movement of the muscles.
Therefore, a positive mindset and frequent smiles can significantly improve your leg health and reduce the risk of blood clots and varicose veins. "
The old doctor then gave some practical examples to support his point.
He mentions several patients who, by changing their mindset and smiling regularly, have not only seen a significant improvement in their overall health, but also alleviated the leg problems that have been bothering them for a long time.
At the end of the lecture, the old doctor did not make any summary, but threw out a question that seemed unrelated to today's lecture: "Do you know why we feel so cold in the nose in the cold winter?" This question confused everyone present.
The old doctor went on to explain: "Actually, this issue is inextricably linked to the leg health we are discussing today.
In cold environments, our bodies instinctively protect the temperature of the core area, so blood retreats from the peripheral parts of the body, such as the hands, feet, and nose, to more important organs.
That's why our hands, feet, and nose feel particularly cold.
Maintaining good blood circulation in the legs can help us keep enough blood flowing to these marginal parts during the cold winter months, thereby alleviating the feeling of coldness. "
Through this seemingly unrelated question, the old doctor skillfully connected the topic of the lecture with the daily life of the audience, so that everyone had a deeper understanding and awareness of leg health.
When Li Ming left the hospital, he not only had a new understanding of leg health in his heart, but also embarked on the way home with a smile.
