Can fever for few days cause pneumonia? or if you are suffering from pneumonia can fever make the case worse??

no fever does not cause pneumonia, fever is the bodies response to an infection. The fever can be caused by pneumonia among many other infections . No fever does not make the pneumonia worse, the fever is actually trying to fight the pneumonia
