Its gets worser for those who doesn't have electricity or fan in their home. We talking about the similar topic which is heat stroke. Some of us might not be aware what if you keep om exposing our body to the sun it can actually lead to serious Health conditions. That's why am always grateful and happy to be in a healthy steem community, a community to enlighten us about our health.

So my dear friends, what do you know about heat stroke? what causes heat stroke? how can we prevent heat stroke? and what we can do if we encounter someone with heat stroke? Follow me up let's dive into it.

Heat stroke is first of all a life threatening condition happens when the body temperature rises to dangerous levels or when the when the body’s heat-regulating system fails to cope with high temperatures as a result of exposing the body to high heat and humidity at that process the body loses too much water and salts through sweating. From the explanation, heat stroke is when there's too much heat in the body and the body temperature or body system can no longer cope with it. This condition is very dangerous because if care is not taken, it can lead to death.

Now we know what heat stroke means, let find out what actual causes heat stroke. You may be surprised to hear that even some common activities we do can lead to this deadly conditions.

♦️Exposing our body to high temperatures. For those of us who are forn of working outside or under the sun without wearing something to cover our body, from today contest, it's clear that this works can actually lead to heat stroke. Staying in a hot environment can also be another perspective like staying is a close car or a room without good ventilation.

♦️Lack of water in the body or dehydration: heat stroke can also strike when there's no enough water in the body, If you're in a hot weather, you may likely to sweat. If we don't drink enough water to cover the one drained through sweat, it can be difficult for the body to regulate the body temperature properly.

♦️Too much exercise, I know this might sound strange because exercise is very good for the body. But at the same time , do you know what happened when something is excess or overdo? it can lead to problem. The same applies to heat stroke. If someone is exercising continuously without a break or without being hydrated in a hot weather, it's can actually lead to heat stroke.

♦️Some medicine we take and health condition can also cause heat stroke, in what way? From my research, this drug called diuretics or antipsychotics can actually interfere with the body’s ability to regulate temperature. Also health condition like heart disease and diabetes can also lead to heat stroke.

The good thing to know is that all this consider can be prevented and we must try as much as possible to get rid of those activities that can lead to heat stroke, let see the preventions.

✅Drink plenty of water even at some point whereby you’re not thirsty. When it comes to drinking, a drink with caffeine is not good for the body because it actually drain the water in the body.

✅Avoid exposing our body to heat or staying under the sun for too long. The advice today is, it's better you stay indoors when there's hot weather. And if there's another activity to do during hot weather, you should wear something lighter to cover the body and also try being in a shade.

✅Wear sunscreen if your a someone who is fond of doing minial job like a an architect, and also, it is good to know your risk factors, those health condition and medicine that can striker heat store, know to prevent then in other to avoid this deadly condition.

✅My dear, it's not good to over do. You can opt for simple workout to your routine and make sure to take a break when you're tired and drink plenty of water.

Nobody is praying for such a condition neither do I wish my enemy. I have never experienced it and through this contest I have been able to learned more things which can help me and my family. Am grateful to Jehovah.

What to do if we find someone in heat stroke conditions

Someone like me have never experienced the condition but as we know, we live in a world whereby unexpected circumstances can happen at any time, if we find our self or people around us in this condition what should we do?

❤️Move or get the person to a place that's cool, or a shard, a place away from sun.

❤️Try to cool the person's body temperature down by applying ice blocks on the person's neck, and head,

❤️Give the person cool water to drink, remember no alcoholic beverage with caffeine.

❤️Call for help or emergency is the person is not responding for immediate medical assistance.

I believe with this small know knowledge today we'll be able to live a healthy life with no heath condition. Thank you all.
