Symptoms of Heatstroke in Spring
Disease description:
I've been feeling dizzy and nauseous since yesterday. My mom said it's heatstroke, but it's spring now. How can someone get heatstroke in spring? I'd like to ask about the symptoms of heatstroke in spring.
The main symptoms of heatstroke in spring include the following:
1. Elevated body temperature: Body temperature may be normal or slightly increased initially, but as heatstroke worsens, the temperature can rapidly rise above 38℃, and may exceed 40℃ in severe cases.
2. Neurological symptoms: Prominent headache, often located in the forehead or temples and possibly radiating to the entire head; accompanied by dizziness, typically of a rotational nature. In severe cases, confusion or coma may occur.
3. Signs of dehydration: Intense thirst, dry mouth, and frequent need for drinking water; additionally, symptoms such as nausea and vomiting may appear, which are stress responses of the body to fluid loss.
4. General discomfort: Significant fatigue, which may spread from the limbs to the whole body, accompanied by weakness and exhaustion; muscle cramps, especially in the limbs and abdominal muscles, may also occur in cases of severe heatstroke.
Symptoms of heatstroke in spring are diverse and can rapidly worsen. Prompt cooling and rehydration measures are necessary, and medical treatment should be sought when required.
