Here are some ways you can identify heat stroke and what you should do when you see some of its symptoms.
With temperatures creeping up during the summer months, it's important to know how to stay safe and steer clear of heat-related illnesses like heat stroke.
Heat stroke can be dangerous and is among the most serious heat-related illness, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Heat stroke occurs when the body is unable to regulate its temperature. This happens when the sweating mechanism fails and the body cannot cool down, according to the CDC.
Having a heat stroke can cause the body temperature to rise to 106°F or higher within 10 to 15 minutes.
