Fever, medically termed pyrexia is a body temperature that is higher than normal. It is a symptom resulting from several diseases. Fever occurs in anyone regardless of age. Fever normally takes place in response to any infection as with the flu virus or even with the swelling that occurs with tissue injury or disease. Other causes of fever may include poison, drugs, heat, hormonal issues, etc.
In this age many of us do not notice or give importance to repeated occurrences of fever and continue our regular day to day activities even with a high temperature, which is becoming a modern-day dangerous routine.
