During long-flight, what should be aware?

       Traveling by plane for long periods of time can pose health risks for people with certain medical conditions. The air pressure and humidity in the cabin are lower than at ground level, which can lead to a number of problems, including:

               1. Hypoxia: Reduced oxygen levels in the blood, which can worsen the symptoms of certain conditions, such as heart disease, asthma, and COPD.

               2. Changes in barometric pressure: As the plane ascends and descends, gas trapped in the body expands and contracts, which can cause pain, discomfort, and even medical emergencies.

               3. Low humidity: Dry air can cause skin, eye, and mouth irritation.

               4. Reduced mobility: Sitting for long periods can lead to blood clots, swelling, and other health problems.

               5. Motion sickness: Some people are more prone to motion sickness than others.

               6. Jet lag: The body's natural clock can be thrown off by traveling across time zones, leading to fatigue, difficulty sleeping, and other symptoms.

       People with the following medical conditions should consult with the doctor before traveling by plane:

               - Heart disease
