Fever in lung infection is mainly due to the activation of neutrophils by microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, etc., which increases the release of endogenous pyrogens such as interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor, and endogenous pyrogens can directly act on the thermoregulatory center to increase body temperature.
Lung infection is caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi and other microorganisms, resulting in the activation of neutrophils, eosinophils and mononuclear macrophages in the blood system, and the production and release of a large number of endogenous pyrogens, resulting in the body’s heat production and dissipation of heat can not be maintained in balance, increased heat production leads to increased body temperature, thus leading to fever.
Fever from lung infection should be treated promptly with anti-infective drugs such as amoxicillin and levofloxacin, while physical cooling or oral acetaminophen and other drugs should be given to help lower the body temperature, to prevent high fever from leading to dehydration, shock and other complications.
Therefore, lung infection fever should go to the hospital in time, under the guidance and advice of the doctor timely treatment.
