High altitudes may mean ambient pressure can drop below vapour pressure hence, you might feel lethargy, sometimes unconciousness and if you are unable to cope up then connect with a doctor to know the best treatment.
If you have altitude sickness you should first acclimatise with the enviroment for 24-48 hours before stepping out to do any activity.
At altitude, the reduced oxygen content of the blood induces breathing instability, with periods of deep and rapid breathing alternating with central apnea. This breathing pattern is called high-altitude periodic breathing (PB).
High altitude environments can be debilitating to unacclimatized individuals exposed to elevations above 3,000 m (9,843 ft) for periods ranging from several hours to days. Moderate hypoxia induces substantial alterations in physiological and psychological parameters within a few hours
Living at high altitude can potentially improve your endurance during intense exercise. It may increase your aerobic capacity, lactic acid tolerance, and oxygen flow to your muscles. To prevent altitude sickness, climb slowly and reduce your intensity at high altitudes.
