ACUTE MOUNTAIN SICKNESS
Our bodies can acclimate to high altitudes, but it takes time. This sickness, known as Acute Mountain Sickness, comes as a result of a failure to adjust to a higher altitude, usually while fast ascending beyond 2000 meters (AMS). Fluid builds up between the cells of the body, particularly in the lungs and brain. The first signs are a headache, extreme fatigue, and a loss of appetite. When mild symptoms appear, you must remain at the altitude until the symptoms subside. To acclimate your body to the altitude, hike moderately upward for 300 meters on a day over 3000 meters.
ย If the fluid collects in the lungs (this is known as HAPE, high-altitude pulmonary edema),– Symptoms include shortness of breath and the onset of a cough, which is initially dry and irritating before turning pink. |
HACE (high-altitude cerebral edema) occurs when fluid accumulates in the brain.Headache, loss of appetite, nausea, and vomiting are common symptoms. These make you tired and want to lie down, do not want to do anything. You develop a problem with balance and coordination, and you fall into a coma. |
| If the symptoms are ignored, there are several types of altitude sickness:
AMSโ Acute Mountain Sickness takes several hours to develop after reaching a new height. Rules to avoid highย | altitude | sickness:โ Early symptoms: short breaths, cough or headache, loss of appetite, nausea, and fatigue MUST DESCEND |
Never ascend to a new height to sleep if you have AMS symptoms. Descend immediately if your symptoms are getting worse while you are resting at the same altitude.
Treatment: descend | descend | descend!If it is not possible to descend, use PAC (to create high air pressure so that the victim receives more oxygen) or oxygen for one hour, and sometimes 4-6 hours of treatment are required. If you are flying into a high altitude straight, such as Everest Base Camp or Shyangboche beyond 3000 meters, taking Diamox in advance would be better, otherwise, use it when you get mild symptoms of it. MEDICINE:ย Diamox (125 g tablet) every 12 hours. It is normal to experience mild tingling in your hands and feet after using this.ย |
