What are the first signs of a sunstroke?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stopped sweating: Sunstroke occurs when you get dehydrated and run out of sweat, so that your body's thermostat can no longer keep your body cool. Your body relies on water evaporation to stay cool. The first sign is sudden cessation of sweating; that means it's time to get in the shade immediately and drink lots of fluids!
