text: Sunstroke and Heatstroke
  Sunstroke and heatstroke have a similar effect on the body. Sunstroke occurs when you are exposed to the sun i.e. direct heat rays from the sun.
  Heatstroke on the other hand may arise from indoor heat plus low humidity when your body can not maintain the normal body temperature.
  The inability of the body to sweat, which is the body’s way of releasing excess heat, may raise the individual’s temperature to above 105 oF (41oC) or more.
  At first, the victim may be mentally confused and complain of a bad headache. Later he may become delirious.
  Unless he is given help at once, his blood pressure may fall to a low level, and the pulse becomes rapid and weak.
  Recommended for you:
  The best way to handle sunstroke and heatstroke is to try as much as possible to prevent it altogether.
  - Unless absolutely necessary avoid walking or working strenuously under a very sunny and hot weather condition (high temperatures).
  - One of the best ways to reduce the effect of heat is to wear loose clothes made from natural fibers such as cotton or linen, which allow your body to evaporate heat readily by sweating.
  - Water should be handy, it should be cold and refreshing. Especially during exercise and when you are engaged in strenuous work.
  - In hot weather conditions take cool baths or showers as much as you can.
  - You can soak a towel with cold water to cool your head and body.
  - Avoid enclosed work environment or rooms without proper inlet and outlet ventilation for fresh air (Air circulation).
  - Try to avoid the hot sun between 10 am and 4 pm
