What are the common sense of first aid for marathon

Physical exercise can improve our body very well. Running is a whole-body exercise. As long as we persist in exercising, our body will become healthier. Marathon is a long-distance running sport. However, it is easy to cause physical overdraft when participating in a marathon. This will seriously affect the health of the body. However, if you want to better relieve it, you must master the method. Let's learn about the common sense of marathon first aid.

What are the common sense of first aid for marathon

1. The phenomenon of athletes’ “extreme points”

It refers to the phenomenon that athletes experience chest tightness, shortness of breath, poor coordination of movements, rapid pulse, increased blood pressure, difficulty breathing, muscle soreness, slowed speed, etc. during the game. This is commonly known as the "extreme point". The appearance of the "extreme point" is when the human body switches from a relatively static state to strenuous exercise. The muscles immediately start to work intensively, but the internal organs are too inert to mobilize all their functions immediately and fully supply the muscles with nutrients. The metabolic product - lactic acid cannot be eliminated in time and accumulates. When the "extreme" phenomenon occurs, athletes with systematic training can return to normal and continue to participate in the competition by appropriately reducing their running speed and taking a few more deep breaths. Athletes who have not received systematic training or who cannot recover to normal after the above treatment should withdraw from the competition and go to the nearest medical station (point) for treatment.

2. State of collapse

If you experience intermittent blacking of the eyes, severe breath holding, a feeling of suffocation, cold sweats all over the body and a state of collapse during the game, you should stop the game immediately and go to the nearest medical station (point) to receive treatment or seek help from volunteers.

3. Abdominal pain, calf cramps

This usually happens to athletes who have not received systematic training. If the above situation occurs and simple treatment by themselves is ineffective, they should withdraw from the competition and go to the nearest medical station (point) for treatment or seek help from volunteers.

4. Muscle strain, ankle sprain

You should withdraw from the competition and go to the nearest medical station (point) for treatment or seek help from volunteers.

4. The Medical Security Department of the Marathon Organizing Committee calls the attention of all medical volunteers, youth volunteers and spectators:

Once an athlete is found to be injured or an accident occurs, the following measures should be taken to ensure that the athlete can receive quick and effective treatment.

Medical volunteers: After discovering an athlete's accidental injury, they will immediately provide first aid to the lightly injured according to the athlete's condition, and send personnel to escort them to medical stations and points for further treatment; the seriously injured will be placed on the spot for initial treatment, and the location will be reported to "120"; if an athlete suffers from cardiac and respiratory arrest, cardiopulmonary and cerebral resuscitation will be performed immediately. At the same time, he directed the surrounding people to maintain order and called "120" to report the location of the incident.

Young volunteers: When an athlete is found to have an accidental injury, they will immediately help the athlete, send the lightly injured to first aid stations and points, and place the seriously injured on the spot. Call "120" to report and arrange volunteers to seek help from nearby medical stations and ambulances. Medical volunteers, young volunteers, and spectators will ensure that once an athlete is found to be injured or an accident occurs, they can receive treatment, making medical first aid orderly and efficient, thereby improving the efficiency of medical first aid.

The above is an introduction to the common sense of first aid for marathons. If we master more of this common sense in our daily lives, we can solve and improve physical problems in a timely manner. In addition, when doing physical exercise in daily life, we must persist for a long time and follow a gradual process.
