Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
