dizziness,
light-
3. Difficulty in sleeping.
TREATMENT:
If AMS is mild to moderate, discontinue
ascent, take rest at the same altitude and if
no improvement is noticed, descend to lower
altitude. Acetazolamide (Diamox) can be
advised. Severe form of AMS must be treated
like HACE.
High Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE):
This life threatening condition occurs due to
severe swelling of brain tissue from fluid leakage
62
63
TREATMENT:
The patient is advised not to exert and must be
immediately transported to the lower altitude
where the person last slept well (descent of 500
1,000 metres, if in doubt). Give oxygen, use
hyperbaric bag and CPAP. If treated promptly,
HAPE patients recover in 1-2 days.
64
Retinal Haemorrhages:
The retinal haemorrhage commonly occurs at
16,000 feet and above and resolves without
treatment. Transient dimmed vision and even
total blindness is also reported with or without
retinal haemorrhages.
Oedema of Face and Peripheral Oedema:
This may also be noticed at high altitude.
Prevention of HAI
Frequent small meals rich in calories and
carbohydrates like jams, fruits, and starches
help. Gradual ascent within the tolerance
zone, drinking of sufficient water and good
acclimatization to decreased oxygen levels at
higher elevations is advisable, in order to avoid
altitude sickness.
Drugs: acetazolamide (Diamox) 2 x 125 - 250
mg per day, indicated if forced rapid ascents and
medical history of AMS. Aspirin reduces platelet
aggregation and decreases the risk of HAPE.
Kailash Manasarovar Yatra 2015

WEATHER
Pilgrimage shall be undertaken during the
monsoon season. The first few days of the trek
in the lower reaches on the Indian side of the
Lipulekh Pass route may often involve walking
in the rain. The monsoon is less intense in the
higher reaches. For the latter, colder part of the
trek, it is necessary to avoid getting wet. A good
raincoat is essential, and so are woollens and
windcheaters for protection against windy and
rainy weather. In the higher altitudes, it tends
to be hot during day time and cold after sunset.
Cold winds, and the combination of changing
weather and exposure to ultra-violet radiation,
skin might sustain damage, unless adequate
precautions are taken by applying liberal
amount of sunscreen lotion. Each Yatri must
use a broad P-cap or straw hat to protect ones
face against the harsh sunlight. Extra pairs of
socks are useful during wet weather.
