The rise in the body temperature results in heatstroke. In heat exhaustion the temperature of the body gets too hot. This happens as a result of internal temperature increase which reaches at least 104°F Heat exhaustion can lead to heat stroke. Heat stroke can lead to more serious problems such as organ failure and brain damage. In extreme conditions heat stroke can lead to death of the patient.

When the temperature of the body drops then the heart and the nervous system of the body does not work properly.This can be caused due to cold weather conditions or staying in cold water for a long period of time.

Answer:

Gastro-esophageal reflux disease is a disease in which the upset stomach causes re-flux of acid back to esophagus. This may produce highly uncomfortable feeling of chest burn that may last even for two hours. GERD can get worse after eating because more volume of acids are released by stomach on detection of food like fast food and food that have high protein content. Patients are recommended to lose weight because that loses the pressure on abdomen a decreases the chance of GERD. Head elevation is also recommended to keep the acid within the stomach. It is same in while sitting upright after eating is recommended by doctors. GERD symptoms may have some respiratory complications like lung inflammation and chest congestion due to the action of stomach acid. This may lead to asthama.
