heat exhaustion while swimming

Its fine to go swimming, however I highly doubt you had heat stroke. Heat stroke is a medical emergency and you would need to be hospitalized. What you are probably referring to is heat exhaustion.

You might be losing too many salts due to sweating and on that exhaustion episode might have lost minerals in salts. You have to rehydreate yourself with water and salts. Measure your blood pressure and keep it in normal range and go for testing of your minerals. Take care!

Is it bad for you to go swimming when your pregnant im 7weeks and 2 days. Will it hurt anything going swimming?

Dehydration can cause nausea and lead to a vicious cycle where the dehydration and heat do lead to heat exhaustion because the nausea prevents the intake of fluids which just adds to the dehydration and leads to the body getting hotter and hotter.

I had my first son on September 11th in 2014 and my best advice is near the end go swimming a lot, stay in doors if you can help it and drink plenty of water.

For some reason this only happens in the sun and sometimes the heat. Just while walking from the car it happens. Feeling like passing out, dizzy, throwing up and the excessive sweating for about 5-10 minutes. After the 5-10 minutes it goes away. Has happened several times now.

A year ago I believe I suffered some heat exhaustion/stroke and since then, when i start getting hot during activities, i get chills up and down my spine, arms and legs. My calf muscle on my left side will tingle/becomes numb, i get dizzy , my face gets red, i can feel my heart pounding in my head and my breathing is rapid but shallow and i have trouble regulating it for a few minutes. It scares me.

My OB encourages me to go swimming/water aerobics. Living in australia, summer is pretty ridiculous but he said itd be fine to swim etc.

I remember being pregnant with my first and asking that question. My doc told me swimming was fine and even good for us to keep our body temp right during the heat. But ask your doc if you want piece of mind. The are so many things ppl well say that will start labor or miscarry, we have to learn what is what rather than just believe.

I didn't start exercising until around week 22 when I finally had energy. I started slow with swimming/walking in the pool. Now I'm super tired again and haven't been exercising like I should, but it's never too late to start.

Hello i am 19 weeks 20 on friday. Went swimming in our heated pool and seemed to get a little bit of pain in my lower right stomach. Not sure what it was but kinda scared me a little bit any comments? Anybody swim or know what feeling im talking about?

Swimming. Lots and lots of swimming.

It has really interfered with my ability to think clearly and lucidly. Is it possible that these car naps caused me to have some sort of heat exhaustion damage to my brain? Even if I were extremely exhausted, would my body be alerted out of sleep when the temperature or CO2 level gets too high before any damage to my nervous system begins? I have been to a neurologist several years ago and he says that eventually the headaches will go away.

Your are probably fine as long as it isn't causing you temperature to go over 100.4 and stay there for an extended period of time.make sure you are staying very well hydrated so you don't get heat exhaustion.

Me ! I literally live 2 yards from the pool. Already went but got tired soo fast. Lol planing on going later.

Hi, It is good that you are feeling better already. Heat-related illness such as heat exhaustion occurs when your body gets too hot. This can be caused by physical exercise or hot weather. It can present with heavy sweating, feeling weak, dizziness, nausea, headache, fast heartbeat and dark-colored urine, which indicates dehydration. It is important that you get out of the heat quickly. Drink plenty of water or other fluids.
