Altitude Sickness

Altitude Sickness occurs when one ascends to high altitudes too quickly, leading to symptoms like headache, nausea, dizziness, and fatigue. It is caused by the body’s inability to adjust to lower oxygen levels at high elevations. Symptoms of Altitude Sickness usually occur between 6 and 24 hours after reaching altitudes of 8,000 ft or more above sea level. If a person stays at high altitudes for an extended period of time, they may begin to develop chronic altitude sickness.
