Summer in the Black Hills comes with real risks once temperatures climb, and heat stroke is one of the most misunderstood. Tamra Lemley, M.D., Kyle Lemley, M.D., and John Tronnes, M.D. join Doc Talk to break down the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke, the early warning signs most people miss and why a simple wet-skin-versus-dry-skin check can make all the difference. They also cover hydration strategies, electrolyte replacement and how parents can spot heat-related trouble in kids too young to explain what they're feeling. Practical advice for anyone spending time outdoors this summer.
