Avoid sitting indoors and in the office during the day when the temperature is high. Those who have to go out should go out only before the onset of heat or at sunset. Drink plenty of water. We must remember that our body loses water without realizing it. As the body loses water and minerals through sweat, the muscles in the limbs and abdomen may experience severe pain. Sometimes headache, dizziness and nausea may occur. Drink salted water or use ORS solution. If anemia, sweating and low blood pressure start, seek shelter at the nearest hospital.

If the pupil is dilated, the pulse becomes weak and breathing slows down, death can occur if not treated in time. What should be done is to remove the person from the high temperature environment, give rest, and if necessary give water and minerals to the body through injections.

#Care should be taken

People with diabetes and high blood pressure should be more careful when going out in the sun. Heart patients should also be careful. Such people should completely avoid adding artificial sweeteners when they have to drink juice. Too much ice is also not good. Care must be taken to avoid water mineral loss through perspiration at high temperatures. Don't go out in the sun without eating proper and nutritious food. If headache, fatigue, nervousness, drowsiness, blurred vision and vomiting are the primary symptoms, do not delay in taking adequate rest. The remedy is to drink plenty of water and get relief from the heat. Eating fruits every now and then is also beneficial.

#The threat of sunburn

Those who work for long periods in hot weather should be careful not to get sunburned. Cover yourself with clothes so that the sun does not directly enter the body in any way. People who regularly ride two-wheelers and engage in outdoor activities should keep this temperature. Such people may suffer from heatstroke due to a disruption in the body's thermoregulatory system. Heatstroke occurs when there is high temperature and humidity in the atmosphere. There is a warning that this situation is prevailing in Kerala's atmospheric temperature. Especially in districts like Palakkad where there are a lot of open areas.

When a sunburn occurs, blood flow in the blood vessels close to the skin is blocked and sweat gland activity slows down. Body temperature rises above 41 degrees Celsius and symptoms such as lethargy, seizures and fainting occur. This problem can even lead to death if not treated immediately. A part of our brain called the hypothalamus maintains body temperature within a certain range. But when the internal temperature rises dramatically due to extreme heat, all these thermoregulatory mechanisms of the body break down.

Many conditions lead to sunburn. High humidity in the atmosphere, extreme hot weather, infection, intoxicated condition, old age, obesity and inappropriate clothing are the main factors. Never drink during hot daytime hours. People suffering from any kind of illness should not go out in the humid sun for any reason. It may slow down the functions of their internal organs.For others, proteins in the muscles break down and accumulate in the kidneys, causing complications including kidney failure.  Their body will be wet with sweat.  Sunstroke can be fatal if intensive care is not given immediately to cool the body.  Doctors say that even those who survive a sunburn can have permanent brain damage.  In addition to memory loss and neurological deficits, kidney failure may also occur.  A little care can save you from all these

#Some symptoms

These include pale skin, nausea and dizziness with fatigue, excessive sweating, elevated heart rate, shallow but rapid breathing, and muscle spasms. Although commonly thought of as high blood pressure, these are actually symptoms of sunburn. The only way is to rest in a cool place nearby. Glucose water mixed with salt and sugar should be drunk as much as possible. Must see a doctor. Get enough rest.

#First aid is like this

If a person suddenly faints while standing in the hot sun, it can be suspected that he has sunstroke. First aid should be given to such people before taking them to the hospital. Move to a shady spot. Then remove the clothes from the body. Wipe away any spittle or phlegm stuck to the nose or mouth. Allow breathing room as needed. Wipe the body with a cloth soaked in water.If available, ice packs are best applied to the body parts, especially the armpits and groin.  Blowing vigorously or cooling the body with a fan is also beneficial.  Water should be given to drink as soon as the body temperature is brought down.

#A summer must-do

Stay out of the sun as much as possible. Do not allow UV rays from the sun to hit your body directly. Sunscreen lotions can be used to prevent sunburn. Antifungal ointments containing steroids should be avoided when using antifungal creams against fungal infections. Exercising in extreme heat and working outdoors should be completely avoided.

Exercising in extreme heat and working outdoors should be completely avoided. It is not good to be exposed to the sun from eleven o'clock in the morning to three o'clock in the afternoon. Must wear umbrella and hat. Men should use full sleeve shirts.  

Summer dresses for women are now available in the market. This will help prevent sunburn. Avoid nylon and polyester clothes, loose cotton clothes are best. Cotton underwear is also best. Wearing cotton bunions under a shirt will absorb sweat. Bathe twice in cold water. It is great for sweating and skin care.Drink two to three liters of water daily.  Drink boiled water along with porridge water, lemon water etc. with salt.  It is better to avoid sweets.  Be careful not to use too much salt.  Bottled water in the fridge should also be boiled.  It should be ensured that the water used for drinking is free of infections.  Eat plenty of fruits and fruit juices while drinking plenty of water.
