The high cause is higher altitude and thinner oxygen, so it is easy to have plateau reaction in a plateau environment. For people with good physique, the symptoms of plateau reaction are mild, may appear slight dizziness, nausea and other symptoms, generally will get better after adaptation. However, if you have a weak constitution and are at a high altitude plateau, you may experience breathing difficulties, pulmonary edema, etc. Therefore, plateau reaction is dangerous.
