Treat "altitude sickness" scientifically and prepare commonly used drugs appropriately.

Many tourists in Tibet are longing for the mysterious trip to Tibet, but they are also very worried about "altitude sickness". For such concerns, Professor Cen Weijun, director of the Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases of Tibet Plateau Disease, suggested that visitors to Tibet must scientifically understand and treat "altitude sickness".

According to Wei Jun, in areas above 3000 meters above sea level, human hypoxic diseases caused by altitude hypoxia environment are collectively referred to as altitude sickness. Experts pointed out that colds, high fever and fatigue are all inducing factors of altitude sickness.

The clinical symptoms of altitude sickness can be divided into acute and chronic according to the length of time when people enter the plateau. Acute altitude sickness usually refers to the disease caused by high altitude hypoxia environment when people enter the plateau or enter higher altitude areas from the plateau or within a few days. Most patients have symptoms of hypoxia such as headache, dizziness, palpitation, shortness of breath, fatigue or nausea and vomiting. According to its clinical manifestations, it can be divided into three types: acute altitude sickness, acute pulmonary edema and acute altitude encephalopathy, and the latter two can coexist.

How do tourists cope with altitude sickness? Cen Weijun suggested that tourists should have a good rest and not do strenuous exercise a few days before entering Tibet. After reaching the plateau, it is best not to lift heavy objects or run. On the day of entering Tibet, you must rest in the hotel where you stay, and try to avoid outdoor activities such as receiving visitors, banquets and visits.

At the same time, tourists can take "Xintongding", "Nuodikang Capsule" or "Rhodiola Capsule" three days before entering Tibet. He said that these drugs have been confirmed by many aerial experiments from Chengdu to Lhasa, and they have certain effects on preventing altitude sickness.

He also suggested that people with bad colds, high fever, acute and chronic lung diseases, severe cardiovascular diseases, late pregnant women and children under 3 years old should not go to high altitude areas.

What should tourists do if they feel unwell after entering Tibet? Experts believe that, first of all, rest and oxygen; Secondly, if the patient's condition does not improve within three to four hours, he must go to the nearest big hospital for treatment immediately, and never "carry it hard", which will aggravate his condition.

In addition, experts advise tourists to prepare some commonly used drugs according to their own conditions before entering Tibet, such as anti-altitude sickness drugs, anti-motion sickness drugs, anti-chapped skin moisturizers, as well as standing cooling oil, mercuric chloride, thermometer, alcohol cotton, band-aid and norfloxacin. Also prepare some vitamin A, vitamin B6, vitamin C, vitamin E and vitamin B 1, take them properly, supplement nutrition in time, and prevent vitamin deficiency. Once you catch a cold at high altitude, emphysema is easy to occur, so you should also put some cold medicine in the medicine bag. Once you have symptoms such as stuffy nose, cough and fever, you should take the medicine immediately.

Select the right device.

What equipment should tourists prepare for going to Tibet? Professionals from Tibet Tourism Bureau suggest that tourists must consider the tourist route, climate and environment of the tourist destination, etc. When choosing tourism equipment in Tibet, don't blindly buy tourism equipment to avoid unnecessary troubles and losses.

The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, with an average elevation of about 4,500 meters, is known as the "roof of the world". The air pressure here is low, the oxygen is less than 50% of the plain area, the temperature difference between day and night is large, it is windy and dry, and the solar radiation and ultraviolet rays are strong. So traveling to Tibet is different from traveling to other places, and there are many things to prepare.

It is worth noting that tourists visiting Tibet should bring enough cash when traveling in Tibet, because tourists can withdraw money in Lhasa through bankbooks or savings cards of China Bank, China Agricultural Bank, China Construction Bank and China Postal Savings, and most other counties and towns generally cannot use credit cards.

Visitors who like to take photos and photography can bring their own cameras and binoculars, but visitors must pay attention to the warmth and moisture of these devices, otherwise there will be a "crash" phenomenon at critical moments.

When traveling in summer, in addition to the necessary daily necessities, individuals should also take rainproof, ultraviolet-proof and mosquito-proof items and prepare a thick coat. Tibet has a large temperature difference between day and night in summer, and the temperature is high at noon, so it is necessary to prevent heatstroke, while the temperature is low in the morning and evening, so we should pay attention to keeping warm. Generally, clothes with different thermal properties should be worn at different altitudes, and clothes and quilts should be increased or decreased in time at different temperature intervals. The basic principle is "it should be warm but not cold". When traveling in winter, you should prepare winter clothes, winter hats, earmuffs, leather cotton shoes, leather leggings, leather gloves and scarves. And skin care products to prevent ultraviolet rays and frostbite.
