Diving Medicine is a specialized field that focuses on the health and safety of individuals who engage in underwater activities, such as scuba diving and commercial diving. It addresses the physiological effects of pressure, gas exchange, and the risks of underwater environments. Practitioners in this field study conditions like decompression sickness and barotrauma, which can occur when divers ascend or descend too quickly. They also provide guidelines for safe diving practices and develop treatments for diving-related injuries, ensuring that divers can enjoy their activities while minimizing health risks.
