NHS Doctor Gives Tips to Stay Cool in the Heatwave

A doctor shared tips to help with the heatwave.

The UK is very hot now, and a doctor is giving advice. The weather forecast says it might be 40C on Wednesday and Thursday.

The UK Health Agency warned that the heat will affect many people. A doctor named Dr. Sanam Grover is helping by sharing tips on TikTok.

The doctor said, 'Close your windows and curtains during the day.'

He said to keep south-facing windows closed and open windows at night to let in cool air. This helps keep the house cool.

The doctor's second tip is to freeze a hot water bottle or a damp towel and put it near your feet at night.

You can also put your face cream in the fridge to cool down.

The doctor said to eat light meals and put a bowl of cold water in front of a fan to make the air cooler.

He advised putting cold water on your wrists and neck to cool down faster and to avoid drinking alcohol during the hot parts of the day.

The doctor said to check on your neighbors and older relatives because they might be more affected by the heat. If someone is dizzy or has a headache, it could be heat exhaustion.

People on TikTok liked the doctor's tips. One person said that putting face mist in the fridge is very helpful.

Another person said that using a cold pack on their neck helps.

Someone else said that using a frozen hot water bottle is a great idea.

The hot weather will end soon, and it will be cooler from Saturday.

The weather forecast says that it will be 15C cooler on Saturday than on Wednesday.
