Causes
Common Causes
Fever is a common symptom of many medical conditions:
- Infectious disease, e.g. influenza, common cold, HIV, malaria, infectious mononucleosis, or gastroenteritis.
- Various skin inflammations, e.g. boils, pimples, acne, or abscess.
- Immunological diseases, e.g. lupus erythematosus, sarcoidosis, inflammatory bowel diseases.
- Tissue destruction, which can occur in hemolysis, surgery, infarction, crush syndrome, rhabdomyolysis, cerebral hemorrhage, etc.
- Drug fever
- Directly caused by the drug, e.g. lamictal, progesterone, or chemotherapeutics causing tumor necrosis.
- As an adverse reaction to drugs, e.g. antibiotics or sulfa drugs.
- After drug discontinuation, e.g. heroin withdrawal.
- Cancers, e.g. Hodgkin disease.
- Metabolic disorders, e.g. gout or porphyria.
- Thrombo-embolic processes, e.g. pulmonary embolism or deep venous thrombosis.
Persistent fever which cannot be explained after repeated routine clinical inquiries, is called fever of unknown origin.
