Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
