Treating heat exhaustion

The symptoms of heat exhaustion are: dizziness, nausea/vomiting,  muscle weakness, heavy perspiration with possible clammy skin. Get the person to a cooler place, loosen clothing and have person start drinking water or an electrolyte replacement drink.  A women on a boat developed heat exhaustion quickly, when I was in the Caribbean.  I had a staff member put crushed ice in 4 disposible gloves and I put 2 of  them under her arms. Her husband put 2 gloves with the ice around the woman’s groin. These are 2 sites which bring down the body’s temperature more quickly.
Heat stroke is a medical emergency, with these symptoms: hot, dry red skin, confusion,rapid heartbeat,lack of sweating, high body temperature and possible fainting.
Stay well hydrated on hot days and in some shade.
