fever

Fever is not only an increase in body temperature, but also a complex defense mechanism in the body! When the pyrogenic effect causes the body temperature to shift upwards and exceeds 05°C, fever will follow. This process involves a variety of cells and substances, such as endogenous pyrogen (EP) and fever activators, which jointly regulate changes in body temperature. Fever is divided into the period of body temperature rise, the period of high temperature and the period of body temperature decline. Each stage is accompanied by significant changes in substance metabolism, physiological functions and defense functions. Although fever may cause discomfort such as digestive disorders, accelerated heart rate, etc., it can also enhance the ability to fight infection and even inhibit tumor cells. For the treatment of fever, comprehensive measures such as physical cooling, drug fever reduction or treatment of primary diseases must be taken according to the specific circumstances. Only by understanding the mechanism and regulation of fever can we better deal with this common physiological phenomenon.
