Can high fever cause nephritis?

A high fever by itself does not usually cause nephritis. Nephritis usually has a specific cause, for example, acute nephritis is most commonly seen after streptococcal infection, but can also be caused by other bacterial, viral and parasitic infections. Usually, the patient has a history of cold for about a week. When the pathogenic microorganisms enter the body, they produce an immune response, inducing the body to produce immune complexes, which leads to kidney damage, and the patient may have hematuria, proteinuria, swelling, and high blood pressure.
