Recently, I believe everyone has seen the death of asymptomatic patients with new coronary pneumonia due to "Happy Hypoxia" on social media or in the newspapers, which has made many people very scared. What is happy hypoxia? Happy hypoxia means that the human body is at low oxygen content in the blood, but the body does not show any symptoms, such as pain or difficulty breathing. This asymptomatic hypoxia is very dangerous, because it can cause a person to suddenly die at any time, so It is also called the "invisible killer"! For this reason, people are rushing to buy oximeters to measure their oxygen levels in order to avoid happy hypoxia events.
A few days ago, the Health Bureau released the 6 symptoms of happy hypoxia through an official Facebook page. Let’s take a look!
[The symptoms of happy hypoxia are as follows:-]
-Headache
- Difficulty breathing
- cough
- Heartbeat
-Level of consciousness changes
-Cold sweats and blue skin
In addition, people who face blood hypoxia at an early stage often experience symptoms such as confusion, restlessness, and shortness of breath. Just in case, you can buy a fingertip oximeter and measure it at home. The normal blood oxygen content is 95% to 100%. However, each person’s physical condition is different, and there are many variables that affect blood oxygen, especially the elderly and smokers. The most important thing is to observe whether there are any of the above or other abnormalities in the body to avoid misjudgment of the oximeter index. Necessary anxiety! Don’t forget to share to let more people know!
