I have a bit of heat stroke, what should I do?

The temperature in summer is relatively high, and the climate is relatively dry in some places. If you don't replenish water regularly, you can easily become dehydrated. Many people suffer from heat stroke due to the hot weather in summer. After suffering from heatstroke, people will find themselves dizzy and have a feeling of nausea. Generally speaking, people will feel much better if they eat something cooler after suffering from heatstroke. Let’s take a closer look at what to do if you get heatstroke.

Heatstroke means that the human body cannot tolerate high temperatures in hot weather, which leads to disorders in body temperature regulation, central nervous system and circulatory system. Generally speaking, heatstroke is easy to occur in hot weather. Symptoms of heat stroke can be divided into the following levels:

1. Symptoms before heatstroke: Patients often feel dizzy, thirsty, sweating, weak and uncoordinated. At this time, if the patient is sent to a cool place and drinks some water, he will get better.

2. Mild heatstroke: In addition to dizziness and thirst, the patient will also have red face and hot skin. Some will also have decreased limb temperature, pale face, and decreased blood pressure. If treated in time, they will recover after a few hours.

3. Severe heatstroke: This is a very serious condition of heatstroke and is often life-threatening. There are four types: heat cramps, heat exhaustion, sunstroke and heat stroke, and the symptoms are very obvious.

What should we do after suffering from heatstroke? First of all, we should immediately send the patient to a place with lower temperature and good ventilation, let the patient lie down with his head elevated, and if there is sweat on the body, we should deal with it; secondly, we can use a wet towel to help the patient wipe the body to lower the temperature of the skin surface; in addition, if the patient sweats a lot, we can give him some light salt water. For unconscious patients, we can massage the Ren Zhong, Baihui and Yongquan points to help the patient wake up earlier.

The above are the symptoms of heat stroke, as well as what to do after heat stroke, plus some daily care methods. If you encounter a patient with severe heatstroke and the above methods do not work, the patient should be sent to the hospital for treatment immediately to avoid delaying the condition. The consequences of heatstroke are still very serious. In the hot summer, everyone should pay more attention to their health. It is easy to get heatstroke in hot weather. Do not overwork in hot weather for a long time.
