everyone at least once in their lifetime is fever. It is characterized

External injury, changing climatic conditions,
strain, throat or any other infection, any poisoning or insect bite
can cause fever. Even on vaccination, we tend to get fever. There
are many kinds of fevers: jaundice, malaria, typhoid, dengue, and
so on.
We may not visit a doctor for a simple fever; however,

to the brain stating that something is not correct with our
body.
There is no particular treatment to this ailment. There are
medicines available to reduce the body temperature back to
normal, and also the other symptoms raised with it.
