danger of heat stroke
In this regard, Dr. Makrand Kumar Pandey, Ayurvedic physician of the AYUSH department of Sadar Hospital, Hazaribagh, says that the risk of heatstroke is common during the summer season. Due to heat stroke the body temperature suddenly increases. The muscles start stretching, the body starts breaking down and thirst increases. Sometimes the fever increases very much. Blood pressure becomes low and the balance of sodium potassium in liver-kidney gets disturbed. In such a situation, fainting may also occur. Apart from this, a condition of brain or heart stroke can also occur.

Keep consuming water, juice or seasonal fruits from time to time. Do not drink cold water in the sun. Drink plain water slowly.
