Do 2nd degree burns cause fevers?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Can do: Just the burn causes an inflammation that can result in fever, but more worrisome is the potential that the burn becomes infected, and this could cause fever. Best to be evaluated by a doc.

Yes they can: You can have a fever after burns but i would be concerned about infection. If the burns are getting more painful you may be getting an infection. It would be best to be evaluated by a physician.
