When Fever and Fatigue Persist
Fever, fatigue, and a general feeling of sluggishness are common symptoms people experience from time to time.
However, if these symptoms persist or become more severe, they may require closer attention.
Colds are typically caused by viral infections and tend to resolve within a few days.
But if symptoms worsen or a fever continues, it could be a sign of another underlying condition.
Possible Conditions Based on Your Symptoms
The following conditions may be associated with your symptoms.
- Common Cold (Viral Upper Respiratory Infection): Caused by a virus, symptoms typically include sore throat, runny nose, and cough.
- Influenza (Flu): Sudden high fever, joint pain, headache, and significant fatigue are common.
- COVID-19 (Novel Coronavirus Infection): Symptoms may resemble a common cold but often include shortness of breath and loss of smell or taste.
- Bacterial Infections (e.g., Pneumonia): Characterized by high fever, severe fatigue, and difficulty breathing.
- Allergic Reactions: Conditions such as hay fever or allergic rhinitis can cause cold-like symptoms due to exposure to allergens.
