Immunizations
Certain immunizations, such as tetanus, diphtheria, and cellular pertussis, can cause fever. Typically, symptoms appear 12 hours after a vaccination. It is normal to experience redness or fever on the first day after vaccination, indicating that the vaccine is functioning. Fever is considered a typical vaccine reaction.
In addition to parasite infections, urinary tract infections and appendicitis can induce fever. Certain conditions, such as malignant tumors and drug reactions, can raise the body’s temperature. Some illegal substances, including Ecstasy and prescription antidepressants, can elevate the body’s temperature.
Ischemia, a condition in which blood supply is inadequate to certain tissues, manifests as fever. A disorder of the endocrine system, a brain injury, or cancer are additional causes of fever.
