Fever
:
Fever refers to a condition
of the body in which the temperature goes beyond the
normal .It is also characterized by disturbance in the
normal functioning of the systems. It is a common ailment,
which occurs both in children and adults.
The average temperature
of a healthy body ranges between 98.4 degree F and 99.5 degree F. It is
liable to marginal variations, depending on the intake of
food, the amount of exercise, and the temperature of the
body occurs between the hours of 1.30 am to 7 a.m. and the
highest between 4p.m to 9 p.m.
Symptoms
:
Fever generally begins with slight shivering, pain in
the head and various parts of the body, thirst and great
lassitude. The flow of urine is scanty. As the fever
rises, the pulse and respiration become faster. Finally,
there is profuse sweating, a copious flow of concentrated
urine, and general relief of symptoms.
Root
cause:
The term fever has a very wide application. It
is the symptom of a body’s fight against infection. It
is one of the most common features of the several
diseases. In many cases, it is a secondary symptom of the
disordered state of the body with which it is associated
.the real cause of all fevers, including common fever,
however, is the accumulation of morbid matter in the
system due to wrong feeding habits and unhygienic
conditions of living. Fever is thus a natural attempt on
the part of the body to rid itself of toxic matter.
