Frequent inhalation of hyperbaric oxygen has side effects on the body, including oxygen toxicity, pneumatic pressure injuries, decompression sickness and so on.
1. Oxygen toxicity: prolonged and frequent inhalation of hyperbaric oxygen can lead to damage to human organs, such as brain, lungs, eyes and other organs. It may also lead to hemolytic oxygen poisoning.
2. Barometric pressure injury: the human body in the process of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, decompression or decompression process may cause barometric pressure injury.
3. Decompression sickness: In the process of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, due to the excessive reduction of pressure, it may lead to the formation of air bubbles in the blood and cause decompression sickness.
Patients need to choose whether to undergo hyperbaric oxygen therapy according to their condition under the guidance of a doctor, and if they feel uncomfortable during or after hyperbaric oxygen therapy, they should consult a doctor in time and take active treatment, so as to avoid delaying their condition.
