Understanding Fever: Your Body’s Natural Defense

Fever is your body’s natural response to infection or illness, occurring when your core body temperature rises above the normal range of 98.6°F (37°C). While often uncomfortable, fever actually helps your immune system fight off harmful bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens more effectively.

Normal Temperature Ranges:

Adults: 98.6°F (37°C)
Fever threshold: 100.4°F (38°C) or higher
High fever: 103°F (39.4°C) or above

Common Types of Fever We Treat

At Samprada Hospitals, our experienced physicians diagnose and treat various types of fever, providing accurate identification and appropriate treatment for each condition.

Viral Fever Treatment

The most common type of fever, caused by viral infections such as influenza, common cold, and COVID-19. Symptoms include body aches, headache, fatigue, and respiratory symptoms.

Bacterial Fever Treatment

Caused by bacterial infections like pneumonia, urinary tract infections, or skin infections. Often requires antibiotic treatment under medical supervision.

Typhoid Fever Treatment

A serious bacterial infection caused by Salmonella typhi, common in areas with poor sanitation. Symptoms include high fever, headache, stomach pain, and sometimes rash.

Dengue Fever Treatment

A mosquito-borne viral infection characterized by high fever (up to 104°F), severe headache, pain behind the eyes, muscle pain, and sometimes bleeding.

Malaria Treatment

Caused by parasites transmitted through infected mosquito bites. Features cyclical fever patterns with chills, sweating, and flu-like symptoms.

Pyrexia of Unknown Origin (PUO)

When fever persists for more than three weeks without an identifiable cause, requiring specialized diagnostic workup.
