What are the precautions after climbing?

Hiking is an outdoor sport that consumes a lot of physical energy. Some people often do it to lose weight and exercise. Before hiking, we must make adequate preparations, such as bringing water. The choice of clothes and shoes is very important. After hiking, people often sweat profusely and feel exhausted. So what should you pay attention to after climbing a mountain? Let’s take a look at it together below.

When the weather is hot, after a hike up a mountain, you're bound to sweat profusely, your clothes will become sticky, and you'll stink of sweat, so you'll have to take a shower. Wait until your body cools down before taking a shower. Don't take a shower right after you get down the mountain. In addition, it is best to take a hot shower, and try to use hotter water. Hot water can promote blood circulation, stimulate the pores to open, and eliminate the metabolic products on the body surface after strenuous exercise. Don't take a cold shower just to cool down. Taking a cold shower after strenuous exercise is only a temporary relief. Your body will be more tired afterwards, especially for people with poor physical fitness.

After a day of climbing, your feet are often very tired and sore. Therefore, in addition to taking a hot bath, if you have time, it is best to soak your feet in hot water after taking a bath, which can relieve foot fatigue.

After a day of climbing, the knee joints and calves and thighs are very tired, especially the knee joints. Therefore, you can use a very hot towel to apply hot compresses to the knee joints and other parts, which can greatly relieve fatigue.

If conditions permit, you can take a hot bath, which can relax your whole body and mind without having to apply hot compresses to different parts of your body.

If it rains heavily on the day of climbing and you get soaked, you will feel even more tired. In this case, you can soak ginger and garlic in boiling water, cool it down for bathing, soaking in the bath or applying hot compress, then pour some white wine into it, and then take a hot bath or soak in a hot bath, and apply hot compress to key tired parts such as the knee joints and waist bones.

The above introduces some things you need to pay attention to after climbing. After climbing and returning home, you must replenish your physical strength first. You can eat something, drink some water, take a short rest and then take a shower. If you take a shower on an empty stomach, it will increase your fatigue. Climbing is very physically demanding. After climbing, you can appropriately supplement some high-protein foods.
