Fainting
Fainting can be caused by fatigue, hunger, dehydration, sudden emotional upset, a poorly ventilated room, or rapid change in body position. Fainting is usually accompanied by pale, clammy skin & rapid pulse.
If someone around you faints
- Lower their heads between knees, or
- Have them lie flat with feet elevated
- Apply cool compresses to back of the neck and forehead
- Loosen tight clothing
- Do not leave alone or give any fluids until fully recovered
- Seek medical attention if the person hit his/her head when fainting or experienced seizure-like activity (involuntary muscle movement)
