Fever
Fever: Introduction
A fever usually means the body has raised its temperature to fight
an infection or condition.
The most common causes are infectious viruses such as
cold or flu.
Also possibilities include gastroenteritis,
hepatitis, sinusitis, tonsillitis, otitis media,
urinary tract infections, measles, roseola,
prostratitis, mononucleosis, dental abcess, TB, and drug reactions.
The most common causes of fever in children include cold, flu,
otitis media, throat infection, UTI, or roseola,
but there are numerous other possibilities.
Less commonly, fever can be caused by
extremely serious conditions
such as meningitis, meningococcal disease,
and others.
Chronic cases of mild fever can indicate various conditions.
Some possibilities are hepatitis, tuberculosis, lymphoma,
and
reactions to drugs (so-called drug fever).
But there are many other possibilities and
there is a long list of conditions with fever
