What Precautions Have To Be Taken With Regard To Heart Condition While Standing In A Sun?

Hello, I have 2 stents (stints?) in my heart. for the next week the forcast is going to be in the high 90's and I have to work outdoors at night. Not too much physical exercise is involved, mostly standing for several hours. I am 63 years old. Is there anything I should do besides stay hydrated and is water the best thing to drink?

Hello sir,
Along with drinking lots of water kindly donot over eat. Eat light food items like citrous fruits and vegetables along with your daily diet. Donot eat very spicy food.
You could regularly wash your face to cool down and feel fresh. Kindly drink uncontaminated fresh fruit juices.
Donot forget to take medications on time.
Donot expose your self directly to the sun. Try to restrict yourself to shady areas. kindly sit and walk around in between instead of standing.
Take Care.
Regards
Dr.Riyanka
