What is Fever?

Fever is a temporary rise in body temperature, usually in response to an infection. A normal body temperature is around 98.6°F (37°C), and a fever is generally considered when the temperature rises above 100.4°F (38°C). Fever is the body's natural defense mechanism to fight infections caused by:

• Viral Infections – Common cold, flu, dengue, chikungunya, COVID-19, etc.
• Bacterial Infections – Typhoid, pneumonia, urinary tract infections, etc.
• Parasitic Infections – Malaria, leptospirosis, etc.
