What Causes Elevated Temperature In Head?

What causes your head to over heat? I have a regular to slightly elevated temperature. But cannot do any normal chores without severely overheating but it occurs only on my head and perspiration runs down my head and soaks my shirt. It looks like some one threw water on my face
