Contest !! || Heat stroke
Good morning my admirable steemians. I'm excited to participate in this contest organised by @khursheedanwar with the theme "Heat stroke". Last few months, the intense heat caused by the sun was unbearable. It breaks through the internet and i personally felt the heat. The word "Heat stroke" can be also described as "death". How? Let's proceed then....👇🏾
What is heat stroke? |
---|
When our body can no longer control its temperature due to lack of water and intensed heat from the sun, is known as heat stroke. Heat stroke is one of the most dangerous illness, because it can damage our body system, and probably lead to dead if emergency care isn't taken. Many individuals living in the society with brain malfunction faces this illness due to heat. This shows how dangerous and serious heat stroke can be.
Let me give this small illustration about a car and our body system to make it a bit easier to understand. Heat stroke is like our body engine overheating. Our body regulates it temperature, just like a car cooling system (our sweat). But when we're out of the cooling fan (Sweat) due to exposure of sun for a longer period of time, our body cooling system will fail (lack of sweat), hence skyrocketing the temperature and finally leads to heat stroke.
What are heat stroke causes? |

- Drinking excess Alcohol🍻
Millions of people living in the society today fall a Victim to this deadly disease (heat stroke) due to consumption and taking excess alcohol into the body system. Taking a sip of alcohol Isn't bad due to minor health issues, but when we consume too much of it, it leads to dehydration and at last we develop heat stroke.
- Taking unpescribed drugs💊
It's very crucial to seek the doctor's advice when taking drugs. They're some medication we take into our body system that can harm us, though it'll start gradually. Our body needs to stay hydrated and absorb water so as to fight against heat stroke. When we take medication like stimulant which can possibly increase physical activities, it can lead to heat stroke especially in a hot and sunny environment.
- Exposure to the sun☀️
When we expose our body to the sun, it increase the risk of heat stroke illness. When participating in physical activities such as labouring and farming under the hot sun for a longer period of time, we'll start feeling feverish, headaches and pains all over our Body, at last it produces the result Called heat stroke.

- Drinking excess water💦
Drinking excess water daily will help us stay hydrated because that's what our body system needs to fight against heat stroke. Spending so many hours under the hot sun and intense heat will only trigger the risk of heat stroke from our body. Consuming excess water is like the cooling fan i talked about earlier, it'll fight against heat stroke in our body.
- Using safety equipment when working👷🏾♂️
It's advisable and important to use our safety measures while at work, because our helmet, gloves and our overall will reduce the intense heat extracted from the sun as well as preventing hear stroke. When heat has free access to intrude our body system easily, we may likely have heat stroke. So putting on this safety measures will help reduce the intense heat and safe or prevent us from heat stroke.
Have you any attack of heat stroke in your life? |

I haven't experienced such an attack my whole life and I'm not dreaming to. I knew of this heat stroke when i was still young, so i did everything possible to prevent it attack. Our family doctor warned us about it and how dangerous it could be, so my family and i heed the doctor's advice and follow his prescriptions. With the alarming warning from our family doctor, I'm not a victim of heat stroke.

I've never heard of heat stroke before.
When I first read the topic, I thought you spelt heart wrongly 🤦😂
I thought it's a normal break down called fainting
It is indeed true that when the body can no longer regulate heat in the body, it results to heat stroke.
There're many ways it can be prevented, as you've mentioned. Drinking enough water, infact lots of water.
Wearing safety equipments when working under intensive sunlight..etc.
Thank you for the enlightenment.☺️😌
