With hypothermia, the whole body basically cools down, so the main symptoms arise from the body's need to warm up. You should, therefore, be able to recognize the early symptoms of hypothermia in your child: intense body shivering, slow, difficult movements, awkward gait and speech difficulties.

Freezing (or hypothermia) is a very serious condition that occurs when the body temperature drops below 35 °C. The most common causes that can lead to hypothermia are: sweating in cold weather, weather conditions with low temperatures, humidity and wind, drowning in water (especially if the water temperature is below 10 °C), dehydration, etc.

Frostbitten skin is initially shiny and pink, and later becomes white or waxy in color, and is hard to the touch. Skin may blister or peel for several days after exposure to low temperatures.

Cold weather brings many challenges, and preventing frostbite is one of them. Children will often get carried away in winter games, without noticing frostbite warning signs. Frostbite is a local injury caused by freezing of the skin, and in severe cases, of deeper tissues (tendons, muscles, blood vessels). The occurrence of frostbite is affected by low ambient temperatures, intense flow of cold air (wind), prolonged exposure to cold, tight clothing and footwear (tight gloves, tight or tightly laced footwear).

Heatstroke is a life-threatening condition that occurs as a result of a sudden, excessive increase in body temperature and the body's inability to maintain the temperature within normal limits.

Bleeding can occur as a result of numerous ways of injury (from cuts, falls, to traffic accidents). The procedure for stopping bleeding depends on the nature of the injury, and knowing these techniques takes on an added importance in view of the possible health consequences that may occur.
