Question

Holding your breath while ascending can lead to: Select one: A rupture of the tiny air sacks in the lungs, known as alveoli. A lung overpressure (overexpansion) injury. Arterial gas embolism (AGE). All of the above.

Answer 1

Holding your breath while ascending can lead to all of the above options.

Surfacing excessively fast or holding the breathing while swimming to the surface can make the air in the lungs expand which is known as pneumonic barotrauma. This might break lung tissue, which can prompt gas bubbles to be delivered into the blood vessel dissemination (arterial gas embolism).

The air in the lungs becomes risky when an individual ascends. On the off chance that somebody holds their breath while rising to the surface, the lungs and the air inside them extend as the water pressure decreases. Since that air has no place to escape, it continues to expand against the walls of the lungs, no matter what the organ's capacity.
