发烧与 病毒热

另一方面，病毒热是由病毒引起的。病毒发烧的人会出现咳嗽，身体疼痛，关节和肌肉疼痛以及其他症状。它持续长达七到八天甚至更长的时间。

现在让我们看一下发烧和病毒发烧之间的一些主要区别。

• 发热

发烧通常持续不到七天。如果发烧或轻度发烧，您的身体温度可能会在98–99°F之间波动。

一些常见的发烧原因是：

• 流感
• 免疫力弱
• 鼻窦感染
• 头疼

• 病毒热

病毒发热，顾名思义，是指人与人之间直接接触而感染的病毒感染。您的体温骤升至104°F，使您感到极冷。

一些原因是：

• 咬伤
• 体液
• 消化不良
• 普通感冒

以下是一般与发烧相关的一些主要症状。

发烧症状

• 头痛
• 身体疼痛
• 喉咙痛
• 脱水
• 感冒和身体发抖
• 肌肉和关节痛
• 昏睡
• 生动的梦想和幻觉

您可能会出现发烧迹象，可能是上述一种或多种症状的组合。

在下一节中，我们将讨论如何确定您是否正在运行温度。

发烧温度图表

以下是一个温度图表，可以帮助您确定是否发烧。如果温度读数高于以下任何读数，则表明您发烧。

• 婴儿：婴儿的口腔温度约为96-98.5°F，而腋下的读数约为97-99°F。
• 儿童：大多数儿童都有标准的发烧温度表。在腋下，温度约为98.6°F。在耳朵中，温度约为99.6°F，而前额的温度为99.6°F。
• 成人：成人的平均口腔读数为97-99.5°F。他们的腋窝的温度约为95-98.4°F。

如果温度升高超过正常水平并且持续存在，那么该您该去看医生了。

什么时候去看医生

我们中的大多数人在生活中都超过了一次发烧或病毒发烧。通常，临界温度约为98°F。采取温和的药物治疗和家庭疗法（例如保持水分，喝新鲜果汁以及使用冷热敷料）后，发烧量应下降。

如果没有改善的迹象，强烈建议在此期间去看医生。这是您需要注意的一些症状，在此期间您应该去看医生：

• 胸痛
• 严重头痛
• 经常呕吐
• 腹痛

现在让我们看看如何诊断发烧。

诊断

您的医生可能会根据您遇到的症状向您询问几个问题。他们可能建议进行胸部检查并进行血液检查，以排除其他威胁生命的原因。

根据疾病的严重程度，医生将为您开处方药。

非处方药

如果发烧持续很长时间并且您需要吃药，以下是一些选择：

• 对乙酰氨基酚，也称为泰诺
• 布洛芬
• 阿司匹林
