At this stage, the body tries to cool down through sweating, but its mechanisms begin to be overloaded.<\/p>\n
Experts advise stopping activity, staying in the shade or in a cool place and drinking water in small sips. In case of cramps, drinks with electrolytes can help.<\/p>\n
This condition occurs when the body loses a lot of water and salts due to excessive sweating.<\/p>\n
Symptoms include: nausea, vomiting, physical weakness, severe headache, irritation, cold and clammy skin, as well as high body temperature.<\/p>\n
In more severe cases, damage to organs, especially the kidneys, can occur.<\/p>\n
Person should be immediately moved to a cool or air-conditioned place and drink fluids in a controlled manner. If the condition does not improve, urgent medical help should be sought.<\/p>\n
This is the most dangerous condition and constitutes a medical emergency.<\/p>\n
It occurs when the body is no longer able to regulate the temperature and it exceeds 40\u00b0C. At this stage, sweating stops and organs begin to fail.<\/p>\n
Symptoms include loss of consciousness, confusion, seizures or delirium. The body temperature can rise very quickly and without emergency treatment, it can lead to permanent damage or death.<\/p>\n
Experts stress that in case of suspected heat stroke, the emergency should be called immediately and the person should be cooled as soon as possible.<\/p>\n
