FaintingSource: Papers On Health Fatigue, excessive heat, fright, loss of blood, hunger, etc., are common causes. The action of the heart is temporarily interfered with, and pallor, a sweat on the forehead, with an indescribable feeling of sinking away, precede unconsciousness. The first thing to do is to bend down the patient's head till it touches the knees, and keep it there for a few minutes. After he has partially recovered consciousness, the clothing should be loosened, and all tight bands or braces removed. The face and hands should be bathed in cold water, slapping the face with a wet towel. Some stimulant, such as hot tea, coffee, or sal volatile, may then be given. If there is a wound causing loss of blood, it should be attended to at once. In case fainting is due to hunger, the greatest care should be taken to give only small quantities of food after recovery, as a large amount may prove fatal. A sip of cold water, or bathing the face with cold water, will generally prevent a threatened fainting. If there appears any immediate danger of a relapse, keep the patient in a horizontal position for some time. Persons liable to fainting fits should be careful to avoid extremes of temperature, such as very hot or very cold baths. Next: Fall A Previous: Face Skin Of
