Quiz - Physiology - Problems Immediately After a Dive

[Ukmc]

I am in the minority here and may well be wrong. I put b because I recall that an embolism (or mediastinal emphazima and the other 2) may occur pretty much right away whereas DCS may take some time to appear.

Agree completely.
AGE. Related directly to lung overexpansion injury.
Paralysis is not a common symptom of DCS.

In your formatting bar, choose +, the Spoiler, then Continue (with no title).
Put what you want to hide between the square-brackets.

And if you want to be cute, add a title to the spoiler tag

[SPOILER="Spoiler title"]If you want to be cute[/SPOILER]

Spoiler: Spoiler title
