First, symptoms caused by low oxygen content.
Different from the plain, the plateau area is rich in oxygen, so when people arrive at the plateau, a series of reactions often occur because of the sudden drop of oxygen content. More common are purple lips and fingertips, lethargy, high spirits and inability to sleep. Of course, there are also some views that people who usually exercise more will have more serious altitude sickness when they arrive at the plateau because of their higher demand for oxygen. Of course, this is not to advocate that everyone should exercise less at ordinary times.
Second, the symptoms caused by dry air.
Because the annual sunshine level in plateau area is much higher than that in plain area, it will be dry, especially the air. Then when I was on the plateau the night before yesterday, my skin was rough, my lips were chapped, my nostrils were bleeding, and even because the air was dry, my blood accumulated quickly.
Third, hyperreflexia is a syndrome.
Of course, the symptoms of altitude sickness are not single, but an organic combination of multiple symptoms. Altitude sickness is often accompanied by multiple symptoms. Due to the scarcity of air content, dry air and other factors, the work of various organs will be affected, so there will be a series of deviations in various organs. If altitude sickness is serious, it is often necessary to seek medical attention in time, otherwise altitude sickness will occur. If you catch a cold at high altitude, it will be life-threatening if you don't treat it in time.
