High temperature, the human body through the expansion of blood vessels, skin pores to heat, perspiration, body temperature regulation system to work properly. After high temperature suddenly into the air conditioner indoor, blood vessels and smooth muscle distributed throughout the human body will shrink when cooled rapidly, especially distributed in the limbs, abdomen, etc. of the peripheral. Then, when the body back to the outdoor hot, the blood vessels and muscles will re-diastolic, blood vessels and muscle relaxation, but takes a long time, if they have not time to complete relaxation, the body once again cold, there will be smooth muscle, blood vessels spasm, leading to difficulties caused by the body heat of heat stroke. Meanwhile, the peripheral will narrow due to abnormal contraction, increased blood pressure; because of abdominal and peripheral vascular smooth muscle of hot and cold in the high frequency switching, the interaction will lead to gastrointestinal spasm, causing diarrhea.
