What is Heat Stroke?

Heat stroke is a severe and potentially life-threatening condition that occurs when the body's core temperature rises above 104°F and its normal cooling mechanisms fail to bring it back down. It develops most often during extreme heat, especially during India's summer months, when prolonged exposure to high temperatures overwhelms the body's ability to dissipate heat through sweating. Unlike milder heat-related illnesses, heat stroke involves dysfunction of the central nervous system and can rapidly progress to organ damage if not treated as a medical emergency. It is classified as classic heat stroke, occurring in vulnerable individuals during heat waves, or exertional heat stroke, occurring in people engaged in strenuous activity in hot conditions. Immediate cooling and emergency medical care are essential to prevent permanent organ damage or death.
