Is the climate of Yushu a plateau climate? Will there be altitude sickness when you go? Is it serious? And will it lack oxygen? How to prevent it.

The average elevation of Yushu is more than 4,000 meters, and the highest point is 662 1 meter, which definitely belongs to plateau climate.

Moreover, Yushu has a cold climate and weak constitution, where altitude sickness is likely to occur.

How to prevent altitude sickness

* Plateau deceleration, especially when you first arrive; Don't overeat, drink more water.

* Prepare some commonly used drugs: Jing Tian Honghua Capsule, acetazolamide, furosemide, semisone, etc. It is best to take it three or four days before entering Tibet, or take it according to the doctor's advice, which can greatly alleviate altitude sickness after entering Tibet. These drugs are very cheap and are sold in ordinary pharmacies.

* Never enter Tibet with a cold, and try not to take a bath for two days after entering Tibet, so as not to catch cold and consume physical strength.

* The weather in Tibetan areas is changeable, and four seasons can be experienced in one day. Bring enough warm clothes and wear them layer by layer to adapt to the rapidly changing temperature and prevent colds and their complications.

The severity of altitude sickness varies from person to person Generally speaking, young people are better than middle-aged and elderly people, children and teenagers. For people who live in low-altitude areas (such as the eastern coastal areas) for a long time, when they go to the plateau for the first time, there will be slight precursors of altitude sickness above 2000 meters, such as easy hunger, headache and insomnia. At this time, they need to be careful not to catch a cold. When the altitude exceeds 3000 meters, many people will have obvious altitude sickness, such as panting and purple lips. People who have been engaged in physical exercise for a long time and are healthy can persist to about 4400 meters. However, to be on the safe side, if it is the first time to go to the plateau and the destination is above 3000 meters, it is recommended to make some preparations in advance. If you have enough time, I suggest that you don't rush at altitude, rest for one to three days at about 3500 meters, and then enter a higher altitude area after adapting, which can greatly reduce the intensity of altitude sickness.

Moreover, Yushu has a relatively high altitude. If the landlord usually lives in a plain area, then I still suggest that the landlord should be cautious before going to Yushu. After all, the altitude there is relatively high (the average altitude has reached more than 4000 meters), and serious altitude sickness is likely to occur in places with weak constitution.
