Is novel coronary pneumonia a constant fever?

Fever is the main symptom of novel coronavirus pneumonia and can vary in different patients. Some patients may have persistent high fever; some patients have high and low fever; some patients have no severe fever and present with only a low fever. However, the patient’s respiratory symptoms are just as severe and there can be a lot of exudation in the lungs. The fever is related to the patient’s physical condition, the underlying disease, the measures taken after the infection, and the medication used, especially the medication used can directly interfere with the temperature curve. If the temperature drops after the use of antipyretic drugs, but because the condition does not improve, the fever appears again after the drugs have worn off, resulting in unnatural fluctuations in the temperature curve. It is difficult to summarize the pattern in patient-specific cases, and more cases are needed. At present, the manifestation of fever caused by novel coronavirus pneumonia is still in a rather scattered and irregular state. Content source: Dr. You Lai
