Contest !! || Heat Stroke

Greetings! I hope everyone here is doing well and enjoying their life by the Grace of Allah Almighty. Today I'm here to take part in another contest organised by @khursheedanwar and the topic is "Heat stroke". As summer is starting in Pakistan, we will see increaes in Heat Stroke in June and July month. So lets talk about it and how can we prevent it from happening.

Heat stroke is a serious condition that happens when your body gets too hot and can't cool down properly. When you have heat stroke, your body temperature rises to dangerous levels which can harm your organs and even be life-threatening. It usually occurs when you're exposed to high temperatures for a long time. Mostly it happens to people who do exercise for long time daily especially in summer.

Symptoms of heat stroke include dizziness, confusion, nausea, rapid heartbeat, and some people even lose consciousness. Its important to cool down someone having heat stroke by moving them immediately to cool place, giving them water, and using cool compressors like Air conditioners or ice packs. If heat stroke is not treated quickly, it could lead to serious health issues or somtimes it takes life which I personally have seen in many videos.

Heat strokes can be caused by several things. One main cause is being exposed to high temperature for too long especially when you are not drinking enough water. Like when you are doing exercise or working in hot weather without proper rest and dehydration can increase risk of heat stroke. Another cause is wearing too many clothes in hot summer or being in a place with high humidity which makes it hard to cool down.

Certain medical conditions or medications can also make you more open to heat stroke. My younger brother was taking medicines for Disc Bulge issue and the medicines were of high mg which makes him uncomfortable even in winters. So if you have heat problem and taking medicines that can affect your body ability to regulate temperature. Its important to be aware of these factors and take precautions.

To prevent heat stroke, first thing that is very important is to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water or any fluid especially if you are outside in hot weather or doing any physical activity. Hydration helps your body to cool down and maintain a healthy temperature.

Another prevention is to avoid staying in the sun for too long especially during hottest parts of the day between 12PM to 5PM. If you have to stay outside, my recommendation is to stay in the shade as much as possible and take breaks in cooler areas. Wearing loose and lightweight clothing can also help prevent heat stroke by allowing your body to sweat and cool down effectively. One more tip here is to listen to your body and take breaks if you feel hot or tired.

Thanks to Allah Almighty me and no one from my family member ever have heat stroke attack in their life. Its because of the tips I shared above as we take special care of it. My elder brother always ask us to keep Cac-1000, ORS, and other rehydration solutions that can easily be made in 250ml to 1 liter of water. Me and my family also drink a lot of water no matter they are outside or in home during hot weather. Its important because we all know the consequences of not taking care during hot weather.

This is all from me for the "Contest !! || Heat Stroke" I invite @steemdoctor1, @mini80, @paholags, and @hudamalik20 to participate in this contest.
