Prevention is easier than cure｜Essay

Almost a month ago, it was raining all day, and the ground was slippery. My mother slipped and hit her knee on the ground. She was admitted to the hospital and underwent surgery. She stayed in the hospital for three weeks. Fortunately, the condition is not serious. After the operation, I stayed in the hospital for a period of time and underwent rehabilitation treatment. It was not more serious than I imagined. I could walk around on crutches. After my mother fell, I needed help with many things, especially the nurse's help in my movements. Buying things depends on the family to buy her. My mother is a person who doesn't want to trouble others. She is used to taking care of herself and her family. Now she has to trouble others for almost everything, which probably doesn't feel good to her. I can't help but think that it is a duty to take care of parents, but if parents have a healthy body and the ability to take care of themselves, wouldn't it be better for their children, parents, and society as a whole?

"Parents only worry about their illnesses." Parents worry about their children's health, and children are equally worried about their parents' health. No matter who you are, good health is the foundation of happiness. A healthy body allows you to do all kinds of things : move around freely, hang out with your confidantes for fun, travel to your favorite places, all of which are attractive to people of any age. When there is something wrong with your body and you can't do it, it also means that you have lost some of the fun in life, and you will feel bad for some people because they are a "burden" for others. Personal experience and the experience of friends (a friend is a nurse), some parents do not want to be a burden on their children, even if they have a physical problem, they do not want to "trouble" their children. Rather than taking care of your parents after their health has been compromised, find ways to keep them healthy.

Prevention is better than cure, and prevention is easier than cure . According to folklore, Bian Que tells the story of his three brothers. Bian Que said that his eldest brother had the highest medical skills, his second brother was the second, and he was the worst. But it is Bian Que, not Bian Que's two brothers, who is famous for his medical skills. Bian Que explained that his eldest brother can detect when a person's condition is not yet onset, and then take medicine to make it better; the second brother prevents it from becoming a serious illness when the patient's condition is first onset; The world considers itself a magician. Then Bian Que came to the conclusion that the eldest brother treats people, but his vitality is not damaged; the second brother treats people, but his vitality is slightly injured; he heals people, although he saves his life, but his vitality is greatly damaged. It can be seen that his medical skills are the lowest. I don't know if the story is true or not, but the truth is true. American founding father Benjamin. "An ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure," Franklin said. Prevention is easier than cure, like my mom, who had surgery after a fall, rehab in the hospital, and crutches after discharge. But if she goes out in a pair of non-slip shoes, her chances of falling are greatly reduced. The cost of money and time to buy a pair of non-slip shoes is definitely lower than that of surgery, rehabilitation, and abduction. What has happened can only be faced, but what has not happened can be prevented first. Here are the things I can think of that can prevent small things from turning into serious illnesses, and it's not hard to do for myself or my parents:

— Buy non-slip shoes — Have regular physical examinations every year — Walk more, do exercise — Pay attention to your diet, don’t eat foods that have been left for too long and foods that are high in salt and sugar (it’s okay to eat occasionally)
- chat with friends more often

A lot of body problems come from small things in daily life. Small things accumulate (or don't pay attention) and don't deal with them, and they will become big things. Dealing with big things is certainly not easy. Before it becomes a major event, it is good for the health of parents to prevent the small and the gradual, so that they have the ability to take care of themselves. For children, this is an act of filial piety.

As a parent, if you don’t want your children to worry, please take good care of your body, do a little exercise every day to keep your muscles and bones active; don’t eat indiscriminately, keep your mental system healthy; chat more with your friends and keep a cheerful mood; do more rewards. Try, keep an open mind (some old people have opened IG to play and learn about the fashion of young people)...

Whether during or after the epidemic, good health is the foundation of happiness .
