Why do some experienced drivers on the Sichuan-Tibet line say not to take a shower within three days of entering Tibet?

In order to enjoy the trip or protect your own safety, I hope you will not take a shower within three days of entering Tibet! What’s the mystery behind this seemingly ordinary habit? Are you sure it's not difficult for us southerners who take showers every day? Not taking a shower within three days of entering Tibet is for your own health. This is the experience of experienced drivers who often walk on the Sichuan-Tibet line. If you are traveling, remember this advice. You know, if you don’t listen to the advice, this trip may be in vain. If you are a driver, you should pay more attention. Once a problem occurs, your life will be greatly endangered.

Taking a shower as soon as you enter Tibet will be too much for your body. Although the altitude of Tibet is not high, it is windy all year round and has a large temperature difference between day and night. In this kind of weather, the human body will still sweat. Those who are practicing meditation for the first time will think that their bodies are sweating and feel that their scalp is still itchy. As soon as I felt this, my friends who were used to taking baths couldn't help it anymore and took a bath as soon as their brains got hot. In this environment, it will be difficult for your hair to dry, and you will have obvious pain in your head, making it difficult to fall asleep at night.

After entering Tibet, you need to let your body adapt to the local environment, which usually takes three days. After you get used to it, you can take a bath happily. Pay attention to the appropriate temperature of the water and control the bathing time. In addition, you should not drink alcohol. Drinking alcohol will increase blood circulation throughout your body, speed up your heartbeat, and make you prone to vomiting.

Tibet is a magical place. If you are not careful, you will suffer from altitude sickness. If you don't want to experience this kind of discomfort, you can't take a shower or drink alcohol. If you accidentally do it, take a good rest and don't move violently. If you feel really uncomfortable, go to the hospital.
