We all know that in order to survive, everyone has the most of air, water and food, or say that no person can survive without them. The number of air is first because without air we cannot breathe. After this comes the number of water. You must have heard that water is life. Without water, a person can live for only a few hours or days. This is the reason why elders and doctors say do not let the body lack water. Whenever you feel thirsty, drink water immediately. But sometimes or some people also happen that they feel more thirsty than necessary. Today let us tell you that excessive thirst can also be a disease. Or there may be symptoms of some other disease. We tell you about this problem of feeling more thirsty…
The problem of feeling more thirsty than usual is called 'polydipsia' in the medical language. Doctors believe that the thirst of a person suffering from this problem increases so much that no matter how much water he drinks, but his thirst is not quenched and he does not do any physical activity and remains comfortable in a cold environment.
Know what are the symptoms of polydipsia?
- Frequent thirst and drinking water
- Feeling of thirst even after drinking water
- Dry mouth always
- Saliva from the mouth becomes thick
Other reasons for feeling more thirsty
- Excessive sweating while exercising or doing yoga
- Lack of water in the body due to diarrhea
- Not drinking enough water
- By eating food that is too spicy or too salty
- Excess intake of tea or coffee
Why drinking too much water is harmful?
Drinking too much water can reduce the amount of sodium in the body and its deficiency can cause weakness, fatigue, lack of energy, headache, heartburn, nausea or vomiting, irritability and muscle spasms. In severe cases, there may be a swelling in the brain and even there is a risk of epileptic seizures, due to which the patient is at risk of going into a coma or even death. If you feel thirsty again and again, do not ignore it and see a good doctor immediately.
