Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
