Severe: intravenous hydration, gastric lavage with iced saline, hemodialysis, immersing in ice water Hyperthermia , also known simply as overheating , is a condition in which an individual's body temperature is elevated beyond normal due to failed thermoregulation .
Another possible cause of exercise induced nausea is overhydration. Drinking too much water before, during, or after extreme exercise (such as a marathon) can cause nausea, diarrhea, confusion, and muscle tremors. [4] Excessive water consumption reduces or dilutes electrolyte levels in the body causing hyponatremia. [4]
“The infection might only be in one part of the body and not affect the core temperature enough to cause a fever,” Cohan says. “Other things, like how sensitive each person is to temperature ...
Severe heat intolerance (e.g., nausea, dizziness, and headache), and tingling, pricking, pinchy or burning pain over the entire body on exposure to hot environments or prolonged exercise which improve after cooling the body. Occurs in the absence of any causative skin, metabolic, or neurological disorders. [15]

Fever is one of the most common medical signs. [2] It is part of about 30% of healthcare visits by children [2] and occurs in up to 75% of adults who are seriously sick. [11] While fever evolved as a defense mechanism, treating a fever does not appear to improve or worsen outcomes.
In a medical setting, mild hyperthermia is commonly called heat exhaustion or heat prostration; severe hyperthermia is called heat stroke. Heatstroke may come on suddenly, but it usually follows the untreated milder stages. Treatment involves cooling and rehydrating the body; fever-reducing drugs are useless for this condition.
