To quickly reduce heat in your head, apply cold to the area. Here's how:
Methods to Reduce Head Heat
Cold Compress
- Application: Use a cold, damp cloth or a cold pack.
- Target Areas: Apply to your forehead, temples, and the back of your neck.
- Effect: This method can quickly reduce your body temperature, including the heat in your head. The cold helps to constrict blood vessels, which reduces blood flow and heat in the area.
Cool Water
- Application: Splash your face and head with cool water.
- Effect: The cool water helps to lower the temperature of your skin and scalp, thereby reducing the feeling of heat in your head. Evaporation of the water also contributes to the cooling effect.
