What is Dehydration?
Dehydration happens when you lose more fluid than you consume, leaving your body without enough water. Common causes include inadequate intake, diarrhea, vomiting, and fever. Dehydration can also cause serious complications like seizures, urinary and kidney problems.
Typical Symptoms of Dehydration
- Having difficulty urinating or producing less urine
- Wheezing or whistling sounds when breathing
- Dry mouth
- Passing much less urine than normal
- Difficulty concentrating
- Decreased motivation
- Feel unsteady or floating when I am standing
- Recurrent fever episodes
Diagnostic Questions for Dehydration
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
- Have you been experiencing difficulty urinating or producing less urine?
- Do you experience wheezing or whistling sounds when breathing?
- Are you experiencing a dry mouth?
- Are you urinating less than usual?
- Do you have difficulty concentrating?
Treatment of Dehydration
To prevent dehydration, drink plenty of fluids and eat foods with high water content, such as fruits. In severe cases, your doctor may provide intravenous fluids if oral rehydration isn't enough.
