Sudden Increase of My 8 Yr Old Son's Body Temperature

Hi guys. My 8 year old son is a G6PD confirmed child. He always has this sudden increase of body temperature but doesn't go up to 38°C so it is not considered as a fever. I really wonder what makes him warmer than the normal body temperature. His hands, feet and whole body is warmer than usual. It concerns me a lot but unfortunately, doctors here in my area aren't that aware of G6PD. Does it have to do with his G6PD? Or can somebody here might have some informative advice about this. I would be really glad to have some conversations with you. Thank you.
