It's summer and time for fun, play and over exposure to the sun. As the time for
Pow-wow approaches, a time when we will be exposed for long hours to the sun,
and its potential dangers especially for small children and the Elderly. The Medical
Clinic staff would like to offer some tips to prevent heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
Heat exhaustion occurs when your body can't sweat enough to cool you off. It
generally happens when we are working or exercising in the hot weather.
SYMPTOMS OF HEAT EXHAUSTION INCLUDE:
Fatigue, weakness, dizziness, or nausea.
Cool, clammy, pale, red or flushed skin.
Heat exhaustion can sometime lead to heat stroke, which requires emergency
treatment. - Heat stroke happens when your body stops sweating and your body
temperature continues to rise, often to 105 degrees or higher.
SYMPTOMS OF HEATSTROKE INCLUDE:
Confusion, delirium, or unconsciousness
Hot, dry, red or flushed skin
PREVENTION
Drink several glasses of water before and after exercising. If exercising strenu
ously in hot weather, drink more liquid that your thirst seems to require, at least
8-10 glasses of water a day. Drink even more if you are working in hot weather.
Cover head with a hat, wet cloth, or scarf. Cover neck with a wet cloth.
Stay in shade when possible.
Whenever possible wear lightweight, loose fitting, light-colored clothes to
reflect the sun.
Soak your tee shirt in cool water, wring out and wear.
If taking medications check with your health care provider or pharmacist about
the possible side effects related to heat, especially diuretic's (water pills).
Take extra care with children so that you don't overdress them or overexpose
them to excess heat.
TREATMENT
Get out of the sun to a cool spot and drink lots of water, a little at a time.
If you are feeling sick, nauseated or dizzy, lie down.
Sponge the body with cool water.
If body temperature reaches 105 degrees, immediate cooling is important,
use wet cloths all over the body-especially under the arms, around the neck, and
in the groin area. A cool water bath would be best.
If the temperature is lowered to 102 degrees, be careful to not over cool
causing hypothermia.
WHEN TO CALL A HEALTH PROVIDER
Call 911 or go to the emergency room if signs of heat stroke develop.
Work fast to lower the temperature and seek immediate help if:
The skin is dry, even under the armpits, and bright red or flushed.
The body temperature reaches 104 degrees and keeps rising.
The person is delirious, disoriented, or unconscious.
