does damp air give you fever?

Accepted Answer

No: There are many causes for fever such as bacterial infection, viral infection, problems with the normal functioning of your body and the effects of some drugs.
Damp air by itself won't cause fever, but being exposed to bad weather can stress your body. This might lower your resistance to a virus or bug that you might otherwise fight off. Hope this helps.

Accepted Answer

Temp meds  comfort: Most illnesses will take several days to run their course.Fever reducers can help comfort a sick kid but do not alter the timetable of any illness.At the most they take a degree off the top temp of the anticipated rise & fall during the process.Germs don't seem to reproduce as fast when the temp is up, so ignoring low grade temps may actually shorten an illness.If symptoms worsten c his dr.

Question 7

my 2 years son have fever for one week without any other symptoms at all , his tepm reach 40.3 and its come down directly after give him fever medicin?

Accepted Answer

Doctor Visit: It is not normal for a child to have a temperature over 38 for more than 2-3 days. A child with persisting fever should be evaluated to find a source for the fever. Possible causes would include an ear infection, sinus disease, streptococcus in the throat or a bladder infection. A doctor visit can often determine the source of the problem.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Hyperthermia: A heat wave can cause hyperthermia, an increase in core body temperature. This is sometimes called heat stroke and is a potentially life-threatening emergency and must be treated immediately by reducing your core body temp.
A fever is a physiologic response to infection that originates inside the brain's "thermostat." a fever is a natural response and often requires no treatment at all.

Question 9

would a pinched nerve give you a fever?

Accepted Answer

Fever: It would be very unlikely for a simple nerve compression to produce fever. Something else may be going on.

Question 10

what can i give a 6 week old for fever 99.6?

Accepted Answer

Just monitor: It would be prudent to continue monitoring the child without givng a med that could mask a problem.For the first 8 wks we worry about babies that might have picked up a germ at delivery that finally invaded the blood & could cause blood poisoning or meningitis.Any rectal temp >100.4 deserves an immediate trip to the er.If just warmly wrapped, lay out & see if temp comes down on its own-then no pbm.
