Can the heat make me sick?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Heat related illnesses can occur with any strenuous outdoor activities. The best way to combat heat related illness is to hydrate before and take frequent breaks. Take it easy. Your body's ability to maintain normal temperature and hydration may be taxed at higher temperatures.
