summary
Fever is a very normal thing. It is often caused by fire. But some people have a fever every day as long as it is in the evening, and it lasts until night. So some patients ask what's the matter with the fever at night?, Today I'd like to share this with you.
How does old man have a fever at night to return a responsibility?
First: infectious fever: it is the most common cause of fever in the elderly, including acute or chronic, systemic or focal infection caused by bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma, chlamydia, Rickettsia, fungi, spirochetes, parasites and other pathogens.
Second: dermatomyositis, polyarteritis nodosa, Wegner granuloma, rheumatoid arthritis and other rheumatic diseases in acute attack period and drug fever, blood transfusion reaction (blood group incompatibility), serum diseases, exogenous allergic alveolitis and other allergic diseases.
Third: physical or chemical factors, large area damage caused by machinery, aseptic abscess, visceral vascular obstruction, postoperative fever, aseptic pleurisy caused by hemothorax, endogenous heat produced by erythrocyte lysis, etc. The elderly are prone to heatstroke due to poor thermoregulation. Hyperthyroidism, severe dehydration, bleeding, congestive heart failure, etc.
matters needing attention
Due to the decline of organ function, the body immunity and individual response ability of the elderly are reduced. When the elderly have mental depression, weakness, loss of appetite and other conditions, even if there is no fever at this time, they should seek medical treatment in time. Because some elderly patients with severe infection do not have fever or fever response is slow, which is often a poor prognosis.
