Medical Alert


Dehydration in Children-Medical Alert

by Patricia Garza-littlebytesnews.com

Parents need to be aware of the signs and symptoms of dehydration in their children. Of course prevention is key to this dangerous and sometimes deadly ailment. You hear stories on the news all the time about sports players falling to their death on the football field or basketball court without always knowing what may have caused it. In many cases dehydration or other unknown cardiovascular diseases are usually the culprits.

As parents, we must make ourselves aware and be able to answer the questions we are most concerned about before sending our children outside to play. During the summer months this is especially important, but now that school is also back in session and many children will be trying out for sports we need to prepare them for physical activity by hydrating them properly. If you live in a dry and hot climate you may not feel as thirsty as you are just because you don't feel sweaty, while those who live in hot and humid climates may not feel thirsty just because they feel sweaty. Regardless of climate conditions keeping hydrated will keep your child and family healthy and alive.
