Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
