Heat Stroke Alert:

As temperatures soar, reaching up to 52.3 degrees Celsius in New Delhi and similarly high across northern India, the body faces severe challenges. The risk of heatstroke escalates, especially with dehydration. This condition can cause headaches, fatigue, and weakness, and failure to recognize these signs promptly can lead to fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. Here’s a breakdown of heatstroke symptoms:

Frequent Thirst:

Rising temperatures cause excessive sweating, leading to dehydration and an imbalance of electrolytes in the body. Without adequate fluid intake, the risk of heatstroke increases, causing persistent thirst.

Severe Headache:

Prolonged exposure to the scorching sun and hot winds raises the risk of dehydration. Dehydration can lead to reduced brain fluid, causing tissues to contract and resulting in severe headaches. To prevent this, cover your head when going outside.

Increased Blood Pressure:

Those with high blood pressure need to be extra cautious during hot weather. Dehydration thickens the blood, making it harder to pump, which can elevate blood pressure further.

Feeling Tired and Weak:

Skipping meals and not consuming healthy foods can lead to a deficiency in vitamins and minerals, causing weakness. Symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, and fainting indicate body weakness. Keeping the body cool is essential.

Muscle Cramps:

Besides fatigue and thirst, frequent heat cramps are common during hot weather. Excessive sweating can cause an electrolyte imbalance, leading to muscle stiffness and cramps. Staying hydrated is crucial to prevent this.
