Symptoms of fever in the baby

Many febrile diseases in prodromal stage may have no symptoms in this stage.

The rising period of body temperature is characterized by more heat production and less heat dissipation, so heat production is dominant, so body temperature rises. The symptoms were pale, dry, no sweat and "goose bumps", and the children felt cold when touching the skin; If shivering occurs, it indicates high fever. Children may have convulsions at this time. During the shivering period, the body temperature is more than 38 ℃, and most of them reach the high fever stage within a few hours, such as malaria, lobar pneumonia, sepsis, drug-induced fever, etc. Gradually rising body temperature refers to low fever at the beginning of fever, and gradually rising from low fever to high fever within a few days, which is called gradually rising fever. Those who gradually ascend often have prodromal symptoms, most of them have no shivering phenomenon, but sometimes feel chilly, such as atypical typhoid. Some have a sudden fever, which may be caused by the neglect of low fever. In addition, the temperature of tuberculosis and other diseases is gradually rising fever.
