Which of the following symptoms is indicative of heat cramps?

The symptoms of heat cramps involve muscle spasms, typically in the legs and abdomen, due to the loss of electrolytes and dehydration. These cramps often occur with moist skin as the body tries to cool down through sweating. The skin may still feel cool and moist despite the muscles cramping because the body is actively losing fluids.

Options describing hot, dry skin or confusion with seizures are indicative of more severe heat-related illnesses, such as heat exhaustion or heat stroke, which present different symptoms and require immediate medical attention. Severe weakness and nausea can be associated with various conditions, including heat exhaustion, but do not specifically point to heat cramps as clearly as moist, cool skin does. Understanding the characteristics of each heat-related illness helps in providing the appropriate treatment and intervention.
