Face sweat
Prolonged exposure to sunlight and stuffy premises can lead to other negative consequences (sunburn, irritation, allergy and sweating). It is usually believed that sweating is an exclusively childish ailment, and only babies suffer from it. This is a misconception. Pill May also affect an adult. Moreover, in especially severe cases, infection of the irritated surface can occur and streptostafilodermia will begin. Treatment with antibiotics can take a long time, up to a month. The nature of the heat stroke has not yet been fully studied. It is known that there is a narrowing of blood vessels, the heat transfer from the middle parts of the body to the skin stops. But it is unclear whether this is the cause or effect of a heat stroke. Nevertheless, the body cooling system does not cope. The situation is complicated if the body is dehydrated. Violated sweating, the main function of which is just cooling the skin. Loss of liquid can be up to 3 liters. If the water-salt balance is not timely replenished, the blood will become thicker and, consequently, blood circulation in the internal organs will be disturbed. At the same time, the blood receives more blood than usual, depriving the blood supply of vital organs, causing weakness and dizziness. With an impaired bloodstream, the body is even more difficult to remove heat from the middle parts of the body. When he is no longer able to resist the heat, there is a heat stroke. Due to a pathological increase in body temperature, toxins form in the body in large amounts, causing acute intoxication of the body, which further aggravates the condition of the victim. And as a result of the violation of blood microcirculation in the heart and brain, acute heart failure is possible, respiratory arrest, which is the cause of death from heat stroke.
