A member asked:
Is it possible that one may have an infection & no fever?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes. Many infections are not associated with fevers. Some infections do not cause fevers in early illness but do so later. Infections that frequently cause fever will frequently not do so in the elderly.
