Symptoms of heat stroke in spring

Heat stroke usually occurs in summer. But recently I learned that heatstroke can also occur in spring because the weather in spring is changeable. Sometimes when the weather is very hot, people may experience nausea, confusion, dizziness, fatigue, and vomiting. It means that the body can no longer withstand the changes in weather. So what are the symptoms of heatstroke in spring?

1. Symptoms of heat stroke in spring

1. Premonitions of heatstroke: Under high temperatures or sunlight, symptoms such as dizziness, tinnitus, chest tightness, sweating, thirst, and nausea may occur. At this time, the symptoms will improve quickly as long as the environment is improved and sufficient rest is given.

2. Mild heatstroke: When the body temperature is higher than 38.5℃, in addition to the symptoms of heatstroke, there may be early symptoms of respiratory and circulatory failure. If treated in time, the condition will improve quickly.

3. Severe heatstroke: In addition to the above symptoms, body temperature can be as high as 40°C, and there may be coma, convulsions, respiratory and circulatory failure, heat cramps may also occur, leading to hyponatremia, hypochloremia, hypocalcemia and vitamin deficiency.

2. Causes of heatstroke in spring

Heatstroke can also occur in spring. There are many causes of heat stroke, which is not only related to the temperature, but also to the humidity and wind speed of the environment. In addition, it is related to many factors such as the individual's labor intensity, exposure time in high temperature environment, physical strength, nutritional status, and water supplementation. Therefore, heatstroke does not only occur in the hot summer season, but also in other seasons of the year if the temperature and humidity in the workshop reach certain conditions, heatstroke may occur.

3. What to do if you get heatstroke in spring

If you find yourself or others showing signs of heat stroke or mild symptoms of heat stroke, the first thing you should do is to quickly evacuate the high temperature environment that causes heat stroke and choose a cool and ventilated place to rest; and drink more refreshing drinks containing salt. You can also apply cooling oil, wind oil, etc. on the forehead and temples, or take Chinese medicine such as Ren Dan, Shi Di Shui, and Huoxiang Zhengqi Shui. If low blood pressure or collapse occurs, you should lie down immediately and go to the hospital for intravenous saline drip. For those suffering from severe heatstroke, in addition to immediately transferring them from the high temperature environment to a cool and ventilated place, they should also be quickly sent to the hospital and comprehensive measures should be taken to treat them.
