How to deal with heatstroke in summer riding

The cause of heatstroke heatstroke is the general name of the symptoms of body temperature regulation disorder, water and electrolyte metabolism disorder and nervous system function damage under the long-term action of high temperature and heat radiation.

It is an emergency caused by the disorder of heat balance function.

It can be divided into three types: the first is the heat radiation disease that is easy to appear in a stuffy room.

The patient will feel headache, dizziness and thirst, and then the body temperature will rise rapidly, the pulse will speed up, the face will turn red, and even coma.

The second kind is sunburn.

When exercising on the seashore, mountaineering or in hot summer, due to exposure to the sun for too long and lack of protection for the head, high fever, tinnitus, nausea, headache, vomiting, drowsiness, fear of light stimulation and other phenomena suddenly occur.

This is sunburn.

Serious solar radiation can also cause death.

Don’t be careless and take emergency measures.

The third kind is called heat spasm.

In a high-temperature environment, the body will sweat a lot and lose a lot of salt, so that the sodium content in the blood is too low, causing spasms in the legs, even limbs and muscles of the whole body.

The symptoms of heatstroke are mild and severe, and there are different clinical manifestations in heatstroke.

Under the high temperature environment, people can first appear “threatened heatstroke”, which is manifested as sweating, thirst, weakness, dizziness, dizziness, tinnitus, nausea, palpitation, inattention, numbness of limbs, uncoordinated movement, etc.

At this time, if it is transferred to a cool and ventilated place in time and supplemented with water and salt, it can be recovered in a short time.

If the above symptoms worsen, the patient’s body temperature rises above 38 ℃, his face flushes or pales, sweating, wet and cold skin, weak pulse, fast heart rate and decreased blood pressure may be mild heatstroke, which needs to be treated in time and rest for several hours.

In severe heatstroke, most patients are in a sudden coma in a high-temperature environment.

Before, patients often had headache, numbness, dizziness, restlessness or insanity, disorientation, and limb movement, etc., skin sweating stopped, dry, hot and red, and the temperature was usually above 40 ℃.
