Cardiologist Konev: life in skyscrapers is more dangerous than changes in atmospheric pressure

Cardiologist Yuri Konev is confident that high-rise buildings have a greater impact on well-being than pressure changes.

The chief specialist of the Moscow Meteorological Bureau, Tatyana Pozdnyakova, announced that a change in atmospheric pressure is expected in Moscow by the end of the week. In early February, the region will find itself in a deep pressure trough, and the pressure will drop sharply. Usually such forecasts cause anxiety among people. However, according to cardiologist Yuri Konev, high-rise buildings affect a person’s well-being more than changes in atmospheric pressure, writes ridus.ru.

He pointed out that Moscow already has skyscrapers over 300 meters high, and the pressure drops during elevator descent in them are much greater than in nature. Konev noted that only weather-sensitive people can react to these changes, especially if they are combined with other climatic factors. However, he emphasized that there are not many such people, although the number of people sensitive to weather changes increases with age.

To avoid negative consequences, Konev recommends observing a work and rest schedule, leading a healthy lifestyle, eating right and sleeping more fully, especially in the dark. He also advises consulting with your doctor and possibly changing your medication regimen. These recommendations apply to both people with high and low blood pressure.
