What harm does long-term exposure do to the body?
Long-term exposure will not only cause heatstroke, but also sunburn.

In summer, ultraviolet rays are very strong. If you are exposed to the sun for 15 minutes, you will feel your skin burning. Short-term sunburn can lead to redness of the skin. If you stay in the sun for a long time without any protection, sunburned skin will have severe pain and peeling.

When skin is irradiated by ultraviolet rays, tyrosinase activity in melanocytes will be enhanced, and melanin synthesis will be accelerated, leading to pigment deposition and skin blackening. If you don't pay attention to the repair after sun exposure, spots will grow out slowly and accelerate skin aging. To make matters worse, the more sunburn, the more serious the injury.
