Hot room

What is the effect of too much of heat in a room.
 
Being in a hot environment, whether it is in a room or outside can cause heat exhaustion or even heat stroke. The first symptoms of this will be increased sweating and a feeling of discomfort. Over time you are likely to feel dizzy and thirsty. Individuals who are highly susceptible could faint even with slight increase in temperature. If you continue to remain in that environment, you could have decreased sweating and an increase in your body temperature. This stage would be when you have heat stroke. The treatment for heat exhaustion would be to move out of the hot environment and move into a cooler place. Drink a lot of water and cover yourself with a moist cloth while sitting under a fan or in an air conditioned room. Heat stroke is a medical emergency and should be immediately treated by medical professionals.
