00:00In this cold season of the New Year's Day,
00:05we are curious about the swelling of the face and feet.
00:09But how much do people swell in the first place?
00:14Let's check it out with this experiment.
00:18Put your feet in a water tank with water up to the surface.
00:23Measure the volume of your feet with the amount of overflowing water.
00:28First, measure your feet before the experiment.
00:31The value is 1777 ml.
00:37Then, after sitting in the chair for two hours,
00:40measure the amount of overflowing water again.
00:46The result is 1985 ml.
00:50In just two hours.
00:52Even though they have the same feet, they swell 208 ml.
00:57The appearance is completely different.
01:01There are 3.8 million people in Japan who are suffering from this swelling.
01:08In fact, swelling is not just a matter of appearance, such as having thick feet.
01:15Swelling is a sexual phenomenon that happens to everyone,
01:19and it can be dangerous for some people.
01:23Mr. Sakakibara, a world-renowned swordsman, said so when he visited Japan for the first time.
01:31If you leave it alone, you may die, so be careful.
01:37Swelling is a big threat.
01:40In fact, a dangerous disease may be hidden.
01:45So, this time, we will do a thorough research on the cause of swelling that is typical of this winter.
01:52We will pursue the cause of the swelling.
02:02Do you have to go to the hospital?
02:04Is it better to go?
02:06We will show you how to distinguish between dangerous swelling.
02:10In addition, we will show you how to improve swelling that can be easily done at home.
02:26Good morning.
02:27The theme of this morning is the cause and measures to learn in the case of swelling.
02:35I was surprised to see you swelling so easily at the beginning of the experiment.
02:40It's scary, isn't it?
02:41Maybe I'm underestimating swelling.
02:44Are you underestimating it?
02:45Maybe.
02:46Ms. Kurihara, are you worried about swelling?
02:49I'm worried.
02:50When I wake up in the morning, my face swells easily.
02:53It's the same.
02:54It's the same.
02:55It's the same.
02:56How about you, Ms. Uchiko?
02:57I feel it a lot after moving on the Shinkansen.
03:01I see.
03:02I can't speak.
03:03I see.
03:04Everyone is worried about swelling.
03:07Let's talk to the doctor in detail.
03:10This is Dr. Sakakibara, an expert in swelling treatment.
03:13Nice to meet you.
03:14Nice to meet you.
03:15Nice to meet you.
03:16Dr. Sakakibara, what is swelling in the first place?
03:21Well, the place of swelling is actually in the area of the capillaries.
03:27The water and waste do not return to the capillaries.
03:32It's like water accumulates in a puddle in the rain.
03:37Swelling is when the water in the blood that has returned from the capillaries
03:41seeps out of the capillaries and does not collect from the capillaries and lymph nodes.
03:50Then the water accumulates more and more in the fat.
03:55Fat?
03:56Yes.
03:57By inflating the fat, it becomes swollen.
04:02In addition, in this cold season, the blood vessels shrink and the flow of blood becomes worse,
04:08so the water that accumulates in the fat is difficult to recover, making it easy to swell.
04:15In addition, there are many other causes of swelling,
04:20including dangerous diseases.
04:24So, here are the ingredients of today's health capsule.
04:27Open!
04:29How do you distinguish dangerous swelling?
04:32The cause and countermeasures to find out the cause of swelling.
04:37Hello, nice to meet you.
04:39I'm Yamamoto.
04:40I came here to find out the cause of swelling.
04:43Swelling in the city.
04:46It's a nice hospital.
04:48Approximately 1,000 patients visit the hospital every year
04:51to solve various problems related to swelling.
04:57This time, we have gathered the Genki Challengers who are worried about swelling.
05:03Let's ask Dr. Sakakibara to check whether it is a swelling that should go to the hospital.
05:10First of all, Mr. Maeno, who is worried about swelling in his legs all day.
05:16It's a start of a gloomy day.
05:21I was worried about swelling in my legs because of a psychological problem.
05:26So, this time, we're going to do a diagnosis of swelling.
05:34Here is the chart that Dr. Sakakibara gave as a judgment criteria for swelling.
05:40If you look at it this way, you can see the cause of swelling.
05:45Let's start with a self-check that anyone can do.
05:49Press the inside of the soles of your feet hard for 5 seconds to check the number of seconds the swelling returns.
05:56If the swelling doesn't return for more than 15 seconds when you let go of your fingers,
06:01it's one of the criteria for coming to the hospital.
06:04What about Mr. Maeno?
06:06I'll let go.
06:08Especially here.
06:10It's really swollen.
06:12It doesn't go back like this.
06:14It's likely to be 15 seconds.
06:16I'm getting anxious all at once.
06:18The swelling should be seen by the hospital.
06:25I'm worried.
06:26In this state, what kind of situation can you think of?
06:30There are two cases.
06:32One is a case where the cause of swelling is a blood vessel in the foot.
06:36The other is a case where it's a problem with the whole body, such as internal organs or lifestyle.
06:45Next, we'll check the abnormality of the blood vessels in the foot.
06:48We'll do a ultrasonic echo test.
06:50We'll put the ultrasonic wave on the foot and listen to the sound of the blood flowing through the veins.
06:56We'll examine the blood vessels.
06:59By the way, if there's an abnormality...
07:07What's this sound?
07:09The sound continues to echo like a wind, reacting to the blood flow and the reverse flow.
07:16What's the sound of Mr. Maeno?
07:20I'll examine the foot with this.
07:25This signal means that there is no reverse flow at all.
07:29It's very beautiful.
07:31Let's listen again.
07:36The sound stopped in an instant, so it's clear that Mr. Maeno's blood vessels are normal.
07:41That's good.
07:43That means that the cause of Mr. Maeno's swelling is internal organs or lifestyle.
07:50It's narrowing down.
07:51Looking at the back of the body, the possibility of internal organs is extremely low.
07:57Then, the last thing that remains is the lifestyle.
08:02Here's a question from a teacher who pays attention to his lifestyle.
08:06What kind of work do you do?
08:08I run a kitchen.
08:10I work from early in the morning to late at night.
08:14You can only work in a small space.
08:16It's almost like standing.
08:18That's right.
08:19In fact, it is the calf muscles that improve the blood flow of the legs.
08:23But you don't use it.
08:25I see.
08:26Speaking of which, your heart is stopped.
08:29I'm scared.
08:30I'm scared, too.
08:32That's right.
08:33The condition of the unmovable lack of exercise due to standing and sitting is the same as the heart stopping for the legs.
08:43The blood that tends to accumulate in the legs due to gravity.
08:47By moving the calf muscles, it returns to the heart like a pump.
08:53However, if you don't move your legs for a long time, the role of this pump is not fulfilled.
08:59The moisture in the blood stays in the legs and swells.
09:05Maeno's swelling was mainly caused by not moving in the same position for a long time.
09:10I don't have that on my face.
09:12So, here's a super-easy swelling improvement that is recommended for those who stand a lot.
09:19Just raise your heels, conscious of moving the calf muscles while holding your hands on the wall.
09:27If you do this for about 3 minutes every hour, the blood flow of the calves will be boosted and the swelling will improve.
09:35I see.
09:36If you have been sitting for a long time, it is effective to sit in a chair and raise and lower your heels in the same way.
09:43Keep moving.
09:44Next is Mr. Kamoshita, who is concerned about the swelling of his face and the blood vessels in his legs.
09:50When I wake up in the morning, I'm worried about my swollen face.
09:54I don't drink alcohol, but I'm worried about my swollen face.
10:00In fact, when everyone sleeps at night, the blood flows in the direction of the swelling of the face.
10:07In the first place, the reason why the face swells in the morning is that the moisture accumulated under the body due to gravity returns the blood and rises to the face while sleeping.
10:19Here's a point of view from the doctor.
10:23In fact, it is the morning swelling that is most common among those who are thin.
10:29If you look at it, it's very slender, so it should be less than the fat on the skin.
10:34When the blood comes in, the water enters the gap between the fat and swells the face at once.
10:43People with thin skin have a lot of fat on their faces, so when the water-containing blood flows through the face and enters the fat, the fat does not swell much.
10:54People with thin skin have a lot of fat on their faces, so when the water enters the fat, it swells a lot and makes it easier to feel the swelling.
11:05However, people like Mr. Kamoshida who have a swollen face only in the morning are within the normal range.
11:12If you have a swollen face not only in the morning but all day long, it may be a dangerous swelling such as internal organs, so it is recommended to receive internal medicine.
11:23Next, let's take a look at Mr. Kamoshida's legs.
11:40In fact, one of the causes of swollen symptoms is a disease that causes blood vessels to float and stand out.
11:48The veins in the veins of the legs are broken to prevent the reverse flow of blood, which makes it easier for blood to accumulate in the legs and causes the blood vessels to float.
12:03In addition, if it worsens, there is a possibility that symptoms such as dermatitis and ulcer may appear.
12:09Is it okay for Mr. Kamoshida's blood vessels to float?
12:15Just in case, let's check the swelling first.
12:19There are no signs of swelling at all.
12:22Here again, the sharp eyes of the doctor shine.
12:26If you don't have a lot of fat, it's likely that the blood vessels will catch fire and you'll see it right away.
12:33It's not just that, but it's common to think of it as ulcer.
12:38Ulcer is caused by the reverse flow of blood, which causes swelling.
12:42Now, for example, you can easily see this blood vessel.
12:46There is a way to check for abnormalities.
12:49For those who are concerned about blood vessels, what is the self-check method for ulcer?
12:54How is it?
13:07One of the causes of swelling is a disease that causes blood vessels to float, ulcer.
13:14How to check it.
13:17You can see the blood vessels here, right?
13:19If there is a reverse flow, the blood flow from the top will stop, so you will not be able to see this blood vessel.
13:27Originally, this blue-looking blood vessel flows from the bottom to the top.
13:32If it is a reverse flow, you will not be able to see it if you hold it down.
13:37I'll try it.
13:39How is it? It's coming out, right?
13:41The blood flow from the bottom is filling this blood vessel.
13:45That means this is a normal flow.
13:47It's coming from the feet to the heart.
13:50It's normal.
13:54Ms. Kamoshita had no problems with her face and legs.
14:01By the way, the reverse flow of blood can now be treated with insurance.
14:08The blood vessels are floating and bubbling.
14:11If you have symptoms such as seeing fine blood vessels as clear as a spider's web, we recommend you see a doctor.
14:19In addition, there are other diseases that cause swelling.
14:23The doctor says there are different ways to look at it.
14:27First of all, the disease that can be thought of when the swelling of the legs is combined with the movement of the body is heart disease.
14:34Liver disease.
14:37If you have a swelling that makes your face and body yellow, you need to be careful because you may have liver disease.
14:48And there is one more thing to be careful about.
14:52Swelling of the whole body, such as legs and face, and swelling when urine bubbles.
14:59This is a problem of service.
15:01That's right.
15:02Mr. Kurihara.
15:04Is it a kidney disease?
15:07I have diabetes.
15:10I have the same problem.
15:13It's a kidney disease.
15:17Diabetes causes kidney disease.
15:20So the final form is a kidney disease.
15:23I see.
15:26The answer is kidney disease.
15:28Kidney disease.
15:30Kidneys have the function of excreting excess water from the body as urine.
15:35However, if the function of the kidneys is lost, excess water cannot be excreted as urine.
15:43The water that has no place to go accumulates in the body.
15:50If you have one of these three symptoms, we recommend that you consult a specialist.
15:55The last person to check is Ms. Hayashida, who has been suffering from swollen legs since she was a high school student.
16:02That's amazing.
16:04When I was in high school, I was in a club, and it hurt a lot when I stood still.
16:10I thought I was fat, so I went on a diet.
16:13But I couldn't lose weight on my legs, so I gave up.
16:18So let's check the condition of her legs first.
16:21First of all, let's check the condition of her legs.
16:24As you can see, most of them are swollen.
16:29There is no problem because the dents have returned immediately.
16:34However, the shape of her legs seems to be a problem.
16:39You can see the result of swollen legs.
16:43This part is not very swollen.
16:45However, the upper part of this part is swollen.
16:50It looks like it's swollen, but you can't dent it even if you push it.
16:55There is a word for this swelling that occurs in fat.
16:59It's called fat deposition.
17:03Fat deposition is an accumulation of water into the fat as the swelling continues to be chronic.
17:10The water inside is combined with fat, which makes it difficult to recover.
17:15This is a common problem for women.
17:17In the case of fat deposition, it may return immediately without denting like Ms. Hayashida.
17:25In addition, there is a characteristic of fat deposition.
17:29As you can see from the first to the fourth stage, all the legs are white.
17:34This is a little swollen.
17:37If the swelling gets worse, you can examine it.
17:40It's like a cellulite.
17:43This is stage 2.
17:45At this level, you can't walk anymore.
17:48Heart disease, brain disease, and many other diseases will occur.
17:53This is probably stage 1.
17:55I think it's good to think that defeating the disease in this situation will lead to better health.
18:04What is the cause of Ms. Hayashida's fat deposition?
18:10I'm curious about her daily routine.
18:14I like to exercise and move my body.
18:18I've been cycling to and from work for 20 minutes.
18:23Ms. Hayashida dances every week.
18:27She has no problem with her exercise routine.
18:30Then why did the doctor notice?
18:37What kind of food do you eat?
18:41I eat out almost every day.
18:44Ms. Hayashida says she eats out almost every day.
18:48She likes to eat salty food.
18:51Salty food contains a lot of salt.
18:55Salt is the source of swelling.
18:59Salt is a great enemy of swelling.
19:02When you take salt, your body will store a lot of water to adjust the salinity.
19:08Salt leads to swelling.
19:12She says she drinks too much and her face is swollen.
19:16But the alcohol itself is not bad.
19:19She says it's because of the salty food she eats with her.
19:24The main cause of Ms. Hayashida's swelling was her diet.
19:28The main cause of Ms. Hayashida's swelling was her diet.
19:31Now, let's listen to her diet advice.
19:36Unexpected foods lead to swelling.
19:44Now, let's listen to Ms. Hayashida's diet advice.
19:48The first point is potassium.
19:52Potassium pulls the sodium out of the urine.
19:57Potassium helps to release the sodium that stores water in the cells.
20:04Potassium helps to release the sodium that stores water in the cells.
20:07If you eat a lot of salty food,
20:10I recommend you to take vegetables and fruits with potassium.
20:16The second point is polyphenol.
20:21The second point is polyphenol.
20:24The second point is polyphenol.
20:26Polyphenol helps to expand the blood vessels and improve blood flow.
20:30Polyphenol, which is included in wine and green tea,
20:34has the effect of expanding the blood vessels and improving blood flow,
20:38so it is expected to improve swelling.
20:41If you are prone to swelling,
20:44you should get rid of it as soon as possible and get through this winter.
20:47What if it's a sweet food?
20:50What if it's a sweet food?
20:52Actually, sweet foods also cause swelling in the legs.
20:54Please don't.
20:56Really?
20:58Actually, insulin and hormones work to absorb sodium.
21:05In other words, it has the same effect as eating sweet food, but with salt.
21:12When you take sugar, your body secretes insulin to lower blood sugar.
21:18This insulin has the effect of promoting the absorption of salt,
21:23so it leads to swelling.
21:26It is also important to eat sugar.
21:29It's hard.
21:31I can eat salt, but I can't eat sugar.
21:34Actually, you know, chocolate,
21:38especially bitter chocolate called cocoa chocolate,
21:43has a lot of small particles in it,
21:49but you can eat about four of them a day.
21:53That's not much.
21:55I eat chocolate.
21:57That's right.
21:59I eat chocolate.
22:01Here are the ingredients of the next health capsule.
22:04Open!
22:06The keyword is improving blood flow.
22:09It's super easy. Here are the tips to prevent swelling in winter.
22:11Let's go!
22:13Here are the tips to prevent swelling in winter.
22:20The first is a special stretch in the bath.
22:24For example, if you put your feet like this,
22:28this muscle will move, so move your toes like this.
22:32I think it's better to call it a one-legged exercise.
22:36In fact, it is also effective in improving swelling
22:40by moving the entire cervical vertebrae,
22:43not just the calf.
22:45It is said that moving your feet like butter in the bath
22:49will improve the effect.
22:51Next is deep breathing.
22:55Breathing is very important.
22:58If you breathe in and out deeply,
23:01your blood flow will increase.
23:03Deep breathing has the effect of improving blood flow
23:07around the heart,
23:10so it leads to swelling improvement.
23:13It is effective to do it about three times a day.
23:20And the third is...
23:22I do this every morning.
23:26The third is a simple way to improve swelling at home.
23:30The third is...
23:32It's called cockroach exercise.
23:34It looks like a cockroach.
23:37I want to make it a cute name.
23:40Cockroach exercise is to lie on the floor,
23:43raise both arms and legs,
23:45and shake them for about three minutes while taking a break.
23:49By doing this, the blood that contains the water in both arms and legs
23:53becomes easier to return to the heart,
23:55which leads to swelling improvement.
23:58If you are worried about swelling, please try it.
24:03When you were an athlete,
24:05did you do cockroach exercise?
24:07Yes, I did.
24:09I wanted to get rid of swelling before the game,
24:11so I did it at the end of the warm-up stretch.
24:14Was it different?
24:16It was totally different.
24:18I wanted to get rid of swelling in my legs
24:20and jump higher.
24:22I see.
24:24I tend to feel swelling in my face,
24:25so I feel that if I move my ears,
24:28I can get rid of the swelling in my face.
24:31You're right.
24:33If you move your ears,
24:35you can relax your autonomic nerves.
24:38The blood flow in your face will be reversed.
24:42You can get rid of the swelling.
24:44I feel so good that my mouth is about to burst.
24:47I'm nervous.
24:49I think you can do it.
24:51I can do it.
24:53Next episode.
