Common sense of riding

Notice; pay attention to

(1) Prevention of airsickness. Airsickness and vomiting are due to the disorder of balance organs and poor physical adaptability. Generally, as long as you keep calm, get rid of other thoughts and take some medicine to prevent carsickness, you will be safe. If you know that you may get airsick, you'd better take the medicine 15 minutes before boarding.

(2) Prevention of the outbreak of old diseases: The changes of flight attitude such as takeoff, landing, ascent, descent, turning and bumping, as well as the sharp changes of light and shade when the plane passes through clouds, will stimulate the occurrence of some diseases. Patients with encephalopathy caused by thrombosis or bleeding should never fly; Patients with severe concussion should be accompanied by specialists and take effective preventive measures; Patients with mild concussion should take some painkillers with them; Elderly people with angiosclerosis can take a small amount of sedatives before boarding the plane, and patients with cold, runny nose and stuffy nose are best not to fly because the eustachian tube is blocked and there is a risk of perforation of the eardrum.

(3) The effective measure to prevent aviation otitis media is to swallow with your mouth open. Of course, opening your mouth or swallowing hard can also play a preventive role, but after all, it is unsightly. So on the flight, we usually forget to give each passenger a small package of beautifully packaged candy, which is why. Chew some candy or gum to keep the eustachian tube open. Chewing is the most effective way to prevent aviation otitis media. If the symptoms are still not eliminated, you can hold your nose with your thumb and forefinger, close your mouth, and exhale forcibly, so that the airflow will flush the eustachian tube into the air cavity of the middle ear to eliminate symptoms such as stuffy ear, heavy ear, earache and discomfort.

(4) It is dangerous to change seats on the plane without authorization. Civil aviation experts also said that in principle, airlines are not allowed to change seats, mainly for the sake of aircraft balance. When flying, airlines usually stop handling boarding passes half an hour before takeoff, which is the key time for flight attendants to balance the plane. At this time, the passenger seats are basically determined, and the stowage personnel arrange how to place goods in the warehouse at the bottom of the aircraft according to the distribution of passenger seats to ensure the balance of the aircraft. Therefore, if passengers change their seats without authorization after the plane takes off, the balance of the plane may change, which may bring flight safety hazards.

Matters needing attention

Many people will choose to visit relatives and friends and travel by plane. In view of some people's discomfort symptoms such as dizziness, chest tightness, nausea and vomiting, Bi Xun, director of the Nutrition Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Armed Police Medical College, believes that this is related to improper diet before boarding, and the following points should be noted:

Don't overeat and eat less greasy food.

The blood supply of human stomach and intestines in the air is relatively reduced, and the digestive function is weakened. Eating too much or too greasy food before flying is not only easy to indigestion, but also increases the burden on the heart and blood circulation, causing dizziness and nausea, and even serious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents.

Do not fly on an empty stomach.

Flying at high altitude increases blood sugar consumption, and hypoglycemia is prone to occur on an empty stomach, resulting in dizziness, palpitation, sweating and other discomfort.

Eat less "angry" food.

Eating too many sweet potatoes, leeks, celery, garlic, radishes, drinking soda, beer and other foods that are easy to get angry will make the gas in the gastrointestinal tract expand after the plane takes off, leading to chest tightness and abdominal distension.

Eat sweets properly.

When flying, especially for the first time, due to mental stress and lack of oxygen, sugar consumption in the body will increase. Eating sweets such as candy, chocolate and jam before boarding the plane is helpful to maintain the blood sugar level and energy supply in the body and enhance the tolerance to hypoxia in the air.

Before choosing air travel, diabetics must have a better assessment and estimation of their health. If the blood sugar is not well controlled, it is best to cancel the flight temporarily. At the same time, if ketoacidosis, frequent arrhythmia, hypertension, renal failure, hyperthyroidism, neuropathy and other complications occur, or cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents occur during the recovery period of surgery, it is not suitable for air travel.

Precautions for diabetic patients:

First, it is best to measure your blood sugar level before flying, and use hypoglycemic drugs regularly as required to keep your blood sugar at a normal level to avoid accidents. You can also take anti-nausea and antiemetic drugs properly before boarding the plane to avoid airsickness.

Second, you must pay attention to drinking more water on the plane, and it is best to drink mineral water every hour to avoid water shortage. Eating can be reduced appropriately to avoid abnormal blood sugar fluctuations. If it is a long-distance flight of more than 3 hours, you should eat something properly to resist the energy consumption caused by the flight load.

Third, in terms of diet, diabetics should bring their own meals and snacks on the plane. Meals or snacks provided by airlines may not be suitable for diabetics. When diabetics fly, it is best to bring appropriate food and put it in a carry-on bag to control blood sugar levels.

Fourth, in the choice of seats, diabetics had better book an aisle seat. Because flying for several hours will increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and leg thrombosis. People with diabetes should walk more. After boarding the plane, if possible, diabetics can ask to change seats at the relatively large economy class exit in order to stretch their legs better.

Finally, diabetics should avoid rushing to board the plane. Rush and nervousness before flying can lead to high blood sugar. Flying requires a series of procedures, such as parking, baggage consignment and security check. Domestic flights generally need to arrive at the airport 90 minutes in advance, and international flights generally need at least 3 hours. To this end, diabetic patients should leave enough time to board the plane calmly.
