Eating too much will also influence digestive function, and may result in stomach cramps with symptoms like abdominal pain, vomiting, etc.

· The first stage: After people enter the water, the blood vessels under the skin will contract, and the skin color will become pale under the stimulation of cold.
· The second stage: After we stay in water for a certain period of time, the expansion in blood flow will occur, and the color will turn pale to light red, with the skin being from cold to warm.
· The third stage: If we stay too long, the heat dissipation of body temperature will be greater than the heat production, and goose bumps and chills will occur. At this time, we should get out of the water without hesitation.
