Do You Suffer From These Signs of Dehydration?
Dehydration can strike as a result of hard work, strenuous physical exercise, and even the holiday party season. Dehydration, when your body doesn’t have enough water resources available, affects your short-term wellness and long-term health.
You can rapidly reverse the effects of dehydration with IV hydration, a faster way to replenish your system than chugging a refreshing beverage. At Iconic Infusions, PLLC of Briarwood Hills, Fayetteville, North Carolina, our team of IV infusion experts, led by Dr. Bryant Edwards, can help you with acute and chronic dehydration concerns.
If you see these signs and symptoms, you could be dehydrated, and be able to benefit from IV hydration therapy.
What are the symptoms of dehydration?
You can start to see symptoms of dehydration after losing just 1.5% of your body’s total water resources. If you’re dehydrated, you could see symptoms including:
- Headaches or muscle cramps
- Dry eyes, lips, throat, and tongue
- Dry, wrinkled-looking skin
- Rapid breathing
- Reduced amounts of urine and urine with a dark yellow color
- Mental symptoms, including difficulty focusing and confusion
- Feelings of exhaustion and fatigue
- Dizziness, weakness, or lightheadedness
- Flushed skin, heat intolerance, or chills
- Heatstroke, a potentially life-threatening condition requiring emergency treatment
Understanding the effects of dehydration
Dehydration affects your physical wellness, your mental sharpness, and even your emotional stability. Dehydration can leave you feeling tired or dizzy, anxious or snappish, or aching and sore.
If you’re dehydrated, you may experience a high heart rate accompanied by low blood pressure. Dehydration makes your heart work harder, and severe dehydration can even shrink the blood vessels in your brain.
Chronic dehydration may cause digestive issues including constipation. Your appetite may drop, although you may also have cravings for sugary food.
How IV hydration can help
IV hydration is a great way to safely and effectively address dehydration due to exhaustion, post-workout or competition depletion, or hangovers. IV hydration bypasses your digestive system, so the full amount of nutrients and support makes it directly into your bloodstream. Here’s how it works.
Your provider at Iconic Infusions, PLLC inserts a small, thin needle into one of your veins, setting up an intravenous drip of hydrating fluids and nutrients. You rest in comfort in our office while your 60-minute infusion treatment progresses, so we can carefully monitor your condition.
We conduct a thorough physical exam and review your medical history to ensure that you’re a good candidate for IV hydration. To learn more about how IV hydration could help with your acute or chronic dehydration concerns, get in touch with the Iconic Infusions, PLLC team today.
