Sunstroke which also referred to as heatstroke is actually a condition of the body being overheated mainly due to the prolonged exposure to the sun that too in the summer time. The most serious form of sunstroke occurs at the time when the temperature of the body rises over 104 degrees Fahrenheit or 40 degrees Celsius. Sunstroke needs emergency treatment otherwise can cause damage to the heart, brain, muscle, kidneys and other organs. The damage can further worsen if treatment is not prompt and quick. The higher the damage caused by sunstroke, the greater is the risk and might even cause death.
As indicated by the name, sunstroke is caused mainly due to the heat of the sun. Some of the major causes of sunstroke areas listed below.
Prolonged exposure to very high temperature causes the overall temperature of the body to significantly rise thereby resulting in a sunstroke. Getting exposed to the sun constantly especially in the summer season can cause sunstroke particularly in the older adults and young children.
Sunstroke can also be caused by intense and continuous physical activity in very hot weather. This is common for the ones who are not at all used to high temperatures.
Wearing excess clothes prevents the sweat from being evaporated with ease thereby causing the temperature of the body to rise to result in heatstroke.
Excessive consumption of alcohol can interfere with the body’s capacity to regulate the temperature causing heatstroke. This is more common in the summer season or when the temperature is very high itself.
Heatstroke can also be caused by dehydration. This happens when the individual does not drink enough water and the lost fluids are not replenished properly.
Some of the common symptoms of sunstroke are as follows.
Apart from the ones mentioned above, there are a number of other symptoms as well. The symptoms vary from person to person depending on the severity of the sunstroke.
