Heat illnesses include Heat Syncope (light headedness and fainting), Heat Exhaustion (exhaustion due to heat), Exertional Heat Stroke (core temperature at or above 104 degrees with CNS issues), and Heat Cramps (muscle cramping from electrolyte loss). Understanding these symptoms is key to preventing serious health risks during physical activities in heat. Immediate recognition and treatment are vital for safety.
