40°C, 41°C, or 43°C – Which Temperature is Danger Zone For Heat STROKE? #shorts
145,826Heatstroke is caused by excessive heat exposure, where the body’s temperature regulation fails. It usually occurs when the body temperature rises rapidly and cannot cool down through sweating. Heatstroke can result from prolonged exposure to high temperatures or intense physical activity in hot environments, especially when combined with dehydration.
The main symptoms of heatstroke include a core body temperature above 40°C (104°F), hot and dry skin due to failure of sweating, confusion, dizziness, headache, rapid pulse, nausea, and even loss of consciousness or seizures in severe cases. Unlike heat exhaustion, heatstroke affects the central nervous system, making it dangerous.
The danger temperature for heatstroke is when the core body temperature reaches 40°C (104°F) or higher. At this temperature, proteins and enzymes in the body begin to denature, leading to organ damage. Immediate cooling methods such as immersion in cool water, applying ice packs to the neck, armpits, and groin, or evaporative cooling techniques are critical.
