Kathmandu. Heat has started increasing in the southern part of Nepal. Due to the sudden increase in heat, there can be a lack of water in the body, dry throat, and dizziness. The eyes may turn red or the urine may turn yellow. If you are experiencing such problems, it could be a warning sign for your health. Lack of water and electrolytes in the body can have serious effects on health. Such effects are called dehydration, or lack of water in the body. According to Dr. Avinash Bhondwe, former president of the Indian Medical Association Maharashtra, dehydration can lead to serious conditions. Due to continuous sweating in the heat, not only the amount of water in the body decreases, but also the amount of salt. You might think that you don't sweat when you are in AC. But by staying in AC all the time, you feel less thirsty. Health experts say this can have adverse and long-term effects on the body. If the body is not taken care of properly in the rising temperature, it can have serious health consequences. Therefore, health experts emphasize the need for proper care. When does dehydration occur?
