What happens if your temperature isn't controlled?

If your body temperature isn't properly controlled, it can lead to hyperthermia or hypothermia, depending on whether it's too high or too low. Hyperthermia can cause heat exhaustion or heat stroke, leading to symptoms like confusion, rapid heartbeat, and even organ failure. Conversely, hypothermia can result in symptoms such as shivering, slowed heart rate, and impaired cognitive function, potentially leading to life-threatening conditions. Both situations require immediate medical attention to prevent serious complications.
