Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Liu Guoqiang
Symptoms of elevated extracellular fluid osmolality include thirst, oliguria (reduced urine output), lethargy, and muscle twitching; in severe cases, it may lead to coma. Elevated extracellular fluid osmolality may result from inadequate water intake or trauma; cerebral cellular dehydration is also a possible cause. During treatment, patients should drink ample warm boiled water and consume fresh vegetables and fruits.
