Question: Can you help please!?
Please Read before answering!.
the city I live in is going to jump into the 90's; I can not afford Air Conditioning; I got fans but all they do is blow warm air during these heat waves!. I have really bad asthma and it is very difficult for me to breathe in these weather conditions!. Going outside is just as worse because I am extremely sensitve to the sun and will burn easily!. I live in an apartment on the 7th floor and it gets really hot between 2pm and 5pm!. I wish not to land in the ER again so is there any ideas on how I can stay cool during this upcoming heatwave!? I will issue 10 pts for the best answer!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You could fill the bathtub with luke warm water and sit in the bathtub, and read a book and stay cool that way! Wear a swim suit just in case you want to get out for a little while!. It can be your own mini pool! When you start to feel hot, just get back in the mini pool (bath tub)! Good luck staying cool!.
You won't get sunburned that way either!Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you have a shower,turn on cold water only and let the shower run with the curtain open a little on both ends!.It will take the room about 5/10 minutes to cool down Keep the bathroom door/window/curtain closed!.This will give you one cool room to go to!.You do not need to turn the water on all the way!.If you notice the room getting really cool,just adjust the cold tap!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You could try making a bunch of ice packs (by filling up the zip-loc type of freezer bags with water and then freezing them), and placing them all over yourself, especially during the hottest part of the day!.

You could also try going to a public place (like the library) which is surely air-conditioned during those especially hot hours!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Always drink a lot of water and eat a lot of ice!. You could also place ice on yourself also!.
yeah, i think the best thing to do is just go to the mall or something!. theres always air conditioning there and you can just shop around or just sit and hang out!.
hope i helped! =)
