Brief Answer:
Water intoxication causes reduced levels of sodium, potassium.

Detailed Answer:
Hello thank for asking from HCM

She can't give a wrong name.

Water intoxication is a condition in which water content of body rises. This usually occurs due to consumption of high amounts of water or sometimes post strenuous exercises resulting in loss of electrolytes. In water intoxication excess water content results in hyponatremia, hypokalaemia and reduction of levels of other electrolytes. This results in swelling of cells and might lead to brain oedema. The brain oedema causes headache, restlessness, dizziness etc symptoms. These are first symptoms of water intoxication.

Thanks and Take care

Brief Answer:
No you will not die

Detailed Answer:
Hello again

No you will not die. Water intoxication even by drinking plenty of water is very difficult. You will not die, the pin needles sensation could be due to anxiety. You can talk with supervisor for explanation if needed.

Thanks

Brief Answer:
This could be due to vasoconstriction.

Detailed Answer:
Hello again

The pin needles sensation could be due to vasoconstriction or constriction of small blood vessels but that is not a serious thing. You can stay relaxed.

Brief Answer:
Constriction of blood vessels cause pin needles sensation.

Detailed Answer:
Hello again

On exposure to ice or cold the blood vessels or skin become constricted for some time. This causes pin needles like sensation. You can use Lacto calamine lotion for symptomatic relief.

Thanks

Brief Answer:
Yes that is not serious.

Detailed Answer:
Hello again

Yes, nothing serious. No need to worry. You can take any good antihistaminic like Cetrizine for relief.

Answered by Dr. Seikhoo Bishnoi (17 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
No risk of getting HIV

Detailed Answer:
Hello again

If we consider HIV virus then HIV virus dies in seconds on exposure to air. So even if we assume you had cut with bleeding and the object was infected with virus even then the risk of getting HIV is ZERO.

So you can stay relaxed, HIV doesn't spread by casual touch or even kissing.

THANKS

Brief Answer:
Even then risk is nil

Detailed Answer:
Hello again

Even then the risk is NIL provided no direct fluid exchange occurred.

Thanks.

You are safe.

Detailed Answer:
Hello again

Direct fluid to fluid exchange means your blood came in direct contact with the blood of another person. This didn't happen in your case so you are safe.

Thanks.
