I found someone suffering from heatstroke. what can I do to help?

Heatstroke is a disease caused by long-term exposure to high temperature and abnormal thermoregulation, which is very dangerous and needs timely treatment. The following is my personal experience and professional advice, hoping to help you.

1. Immediately move the heatstroke victim to a cool place: When someone is found to have heatstroke, the first step is to quickly move him to a cool and ventilated place to avoid further stimulation from high temperature. You can put it indoors or in the shade and other cool places.

2. Take off tight clothes and lower body temperature: Help people suffering from heatstroke untie tight clothes, especially those on their heads or necks, to promote heat dissipation. Apply cold towels or ice cubes to the forehead, neck and armpits of heatstroke patients to help lower their body temperature. If possible, you can spray or soak the hands and feet of heatstroke patients with cold water to help cool down.

3. Replenish water and electrolytes: During heatstroke, the body will lose a lot of water and electrolytes, so it is very important to replenish water. Give heatstroke patients cold water, salt water or sports drinks containing electrolytes to help restore the balance between water and electrolytes in the body.

4. Seek professional medical help: heatstroke is a serious situation, which may lead to serious consequences. If the symptoms of heatstroke are severe or persistent, such as loss of consciousness, vomiting, coma, etc. , you should call the emergency number immediately or send them to a medical institution for professional treatment.

5. Prevention of heatstroke: In addition to timely treatment of heatstroke, it is equally important to prevent heatstroke. In hot weather, we should pay attention to reasonable arrangement of activity time, avoid high temperature periods, wear loose clothes, wear sun hats and sunglasses, and replenish water frequently to avoid overwork and exposure.

In short, when you find someone suffering from heatstroke, immediately move them to the shade, take off tight clothes, lower their body temperature, replenish water and electrolytes, and seek professional medical help if necessary. Preventing heatstroke is equally important. Remember to take preventive measures to protect yourself and others from heatstroke. I hope these suggestions will help you!
