To prevent hiking injuries, first prepare hiking shoes that are waterproof, waterproof and highly breathable. After all, the mountain roads are often bumpy and slippery. If you accidentally fall, in addition to general skin trauma, it may also damage the joints and even cause other dangers. Hikers should pay attention that hiking shoes should not be worn too tight, and about half an inch of space should be reserved so that the toes will not be injured due to excessive squeezing when walking or falling down the mountain; wear thicker and softer hiking shoes with protective functions Mountain socks can enhance foot protection, while hiking, they can avoid excessive friction or pressure, and reduce the chance of corn formation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As for hiking clothing, it is advisable to consider the weather of the day. Autumn weather in Hong Kong often fluctuates between hot and cold, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. It is recommended to wear a jacket that is easy to put on and take off. If the outdoor temperature is high, it is advisable to wear light-colored breathable clothing during the day. In recent years, there has been a boom in hiking and punching cards. Trendy people are wearing trendy sneakers, and girls are also popular in hiking in yoga pants. However, these clothes are not ideal hiking attire, and the design of trendy sneakers may not be able to fully protect the ankles; and women who wear tight tights or yoga pants for a long time, coupled with hot weather and a lot of sweating, are likely to make vaginal discharge Candida proliferates in large numbers, causing gynecological troubles such as urinary tract or vaginal infections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition to causing corns, wearing hiking shoes that are too tight can also become a breeding ground for fungi. Because of wearing tight-fitting hiking shoes for a long time, the feet are trapped in the shaded and baked shoe cage, which is conducive to the growth of fungi. If the toenail hides tiny wounds, it is more likely to be taken advantage of by fungi, which will accelerate the formation of onychomycosis after infection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To prevent onychomycosis caused by hiking shoes, it is advisable to choose suitable and highly breathable hiking shoes. It is also necessary to trim the toenails regularly to avoid injury caused by broken toenails that are too long when hiking. After hiking, change to dry socks to help keep your feet hygienic. After wearing hiking shoes every time, it is advisable to put the shoes in a ventilated place to dry; wash and air-dry the hiking shoes regularly, including detachable shoelaces and inner pads, or use a suitable bactericidal cleaner to prevent the hiking shoes from becoming Fungal hotbed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hong Kong's hiking routes have their own characteristics. It is recommended to check the information online in advance, and choose a suitable hiking route according to personal conditions and preferences. For example, people with degenerated knee joints should choose a route with more flat roads and fewer steps to reduce the impact on the knee joints and avoid aggravating the condition. At the same time, pay attention to the walking posture to avoid corns due to long-term pressure on certain parts of the feet due to improper posture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It should be noted that there have been frequent fatal accidents recently due to sudden changes in the mountain weather, so before hiking, you should pay attention to the weather forecast of the day and make adequate warm-up preparations. In addition, you can pay attention to the location of the nearest public toilets, rest places, parking lots and stations before departure. Don't be afraid of trouble, so that you dare not drink water even if you are thirsty. Because the human body is exercising in hot weather, the body will lose a lot of salt, water and electrolytes while sweating a lot. If they are not replenished in time, it is easy to cause heat stroke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In case of symptoms of heatstroke, observe the patient's condition first and make corresponding countermeasures. Do not just feed water and apply antipyretic plasters. Because sweat in the body contains not only water, but also electrolytes. If you only replenish water, the electrolytes in your body will become unbalanced and cause cramps. If the patient is unconscious, the drink is more likely to choke the trachea and enter the lungs by mistake; and the antipyretic patch will constrict the blood vessels, making it more difficult to dissipate heat. It should be noted that when the patient has generalized convulsions or coma, and the pulse and breathing slow down at the same time, emergency cooling must be performed immediately and sent to the hospital for treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, a warm reminder to all mountain friends, even if you have enough hiking equipment, remember to do what you can and proceed step by step. At the same time, it is also recommended to invite family and friends to go with you so that you can take care of each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
