Can people with pneumoconiosis drink beer?
It is not recommended to drink. The incidence of pneumoconiosis among patients in clinical settings is increasingly high, often due to long-term exposure to dust, which leads to this occupational disease. Due to various inducing factors caused by pneumoconiosis, the consequences for patients generally tend to worsen gradually. Commonly, these patients experience varying degrees of cough, expectoration, shortness of breath, and even severe respiratory difficulties in later stages.
Patients with pneumoconiosis are strongly advised to refrain from smoking and drinking alcohol in their daily lives, including beer, which is also not recommended as it belongs to the category of spicy and irritating substances. Drinking beer may exacerbate some of the symptoms of pneumoconiosis to varying degrees.
