Heat syncope is caused by a drop in blood pressure and often occurs during prolonged standing in hot environments. Heat stroke is a medical emergency characterized by a high body temperature and organ failure, usually caused by prolonged exposure to high temperatures. A charley horse is a common term used to describe a sudden, painful muscle spasm or cramp.
