This condition is the complete opposite to that of hypothermia. Hyperthermia is the condition where the body overheats too much during the summer time. The best thing that you can do for individuals that are in these sort of situations are: # Removing the patient from the source of heat # Cool down the patient by using a sponge and a fan # Replace lost fluids with either ice chips, if the person is in bad condition, or by water with a small amount of electrolytes if it is a mild case. # If it turns into a serious case, or the patient looses consciousness, you will need to call 911 or visit the local emergency room immediately.
