Feeling Hot but No Fever: What It Means And What To Do

Anxiety

This is a common cause of fever. It is just like psychogenic or emotional fever and it can make you feel hot without necessarily increasing the body’s temperature.

Other symptoms of anxiety are:

  • Muscle tension
  • Fatigue
  • Irritability
  • Restlessness
  • Elevated heart rate or heart palpitations
  • Worrying every time

Diabetes

The chances of feeling feverish are high in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. It is commonly seen during hot and humid seasons. It can be caused by:

  • Changes in insulin [4] level caused by increased body temperature.
  • Alterations in sweat glands, which can make it more difficult for your body to cool down in hotter temperatures.
  • Feeling more vulnerable to dehydration, [5] which can increase level of thirstiness.
