Why Does My Heart Race after a Hot Bath?
Ask a Question
I bath severall times a day up to 5 to help relive bit pain but seems when I get out my heart races why? I feel like I could pass out why?
When you submerge your body in hot water, your temperature rises, but your blood pressure drops.
Evaporating sweat normally helps cool you off. But, when you immerse yourself in hot water, that natural cooling mechanism doesn’t work. As a result, you can’t cool off.
When your body gets superheated:
Your blood vessels dilate to try to help cool off the body.
Blood diverts to the skin, away from the body core.
Heart rate and pulse increase to counteract a drop in blood pressure
You can get a mat that you put in bath to give a jacuzzi like effect I found this helpful for back pain
No idea on this one but I can’t imagine a bath 5 times a day is too good for you.
Sounds like a drop in blood pressure. Epsom Salt in a bath is great for relieving aches and pain
