Secondary drowning is an outdated, non-medical term for delayed respiratory complications caused by inhaling water. If water enters the lungs, it can cause inflammation and a build-up of fluid (pulmonary edema). If a child or adult has a water incident, monitor them closely and seek emergency care if they show symptoms. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Warning Signs to Watch For
While "secondary drowning" is not a formal medical diagnosis, doctors emphasize monitoring individuals for delayed respiratory distress. Symptoms can appear between 1 to 24 hours after water inhalation and include: [1, 2, 3]
Breathing Issues: Fast, labored, or difficulty breathing.
Persistent Cough: Ongoing, heavy coughing that doesn't stop.
Chest Pain: Discomfort in the chest area.
Behavioral Changes: Sudden lethargy, extreme fatigue, irritability, or confusion.
Other Symptoms: Vomiting or changes in skin color (e.g., paler or bluish). [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
We have had several reports of the behaviour of some members fishing White lake spoiling it for the majority of our members . This includes playing loud music and shouting.
This will not be tolerated by the committee and the members who do this will have their cards removed be asked to leave and attend the next committee meeting to explain their behaviour.
"Redbrook parking...
Please park cars by the hedge by the road.
No vehicular crossing of the field to park by the gate to the river.
Anyone found doing this will lose their book.
Thank you, Richard."
The Severals....
Please note that you will need your club key to access The Severals.
The landowners have had problems with trespassing and as such new gates are being installed in the coming weeks.
Also note there is a new path from behind the White House swim which ties up with the rusty stile.
A big Thank You to the bailiffs and landowners for their assistance this spring.
Thank you, Richard
