Patient's question:
It's hot and I don't really like playing basketball. Will it cause dehydration due to the sun being too strong, or how do you usually hydrate and what kind of help do you need: how to hydrate when there's a lot of sweat.Doctor's answer:
Normal people need to drink a lot of water every day. In addition to the water content in their diet, they also drink water during the day. The amount should be at least 1000 ml or even 2000 ml. If you sweat a lot after exercise, you need to replenish fluids even more. You can drink some water before playing basketball, and then drink it intermittently after finishing. Since you sweat a lot, you should also eat a little salt and drink more water.
