AC Use in Closed Rooms Harms Lungs: Doctors

TV9 Hindi · health

Spending extended periods in air-conditioned rooms without proper ventilation can negatively impact lung health. While AC units themselves do not directly harm lungs, poor air quality in enclosed spaces can lead to the accumulation of dust, allergens, and pollutants. This can cause symptoms such as coughing, throat irritation, breathing difficulties, and allergies. Experts advise regular cleaning of AC filters and ensuring adequate ventilation to mitigate these risks. Addressing issues like dampness and mold in AC rooms is also crucial to prevent allergic reactions.
