Can you get a fever from exhaustion?

Yes dear, extreme physical or mental strain can weaken your immunity, making it easy for mild infections to take hold and cause a fever. It is your body's clear signal to stop and rest. Take some warm liquids, sleep well, and if it stays for more than two days, do visit a clinic.

This literally happened to me during my college exams last semester. I was pullng all-nighters and my body just crashed with a 100-degree temp. Honestly, sometimes a good 10 hours of uninterrupted sleep and some light khichdi is all you need to bounce back.

Haan na, the body just gives up when we overwork. If you don't give it rest, it will force you to lie down by throwing a fever. Take a day off from work, eat some simple ghar pe banaya hua khana, and sleep. Health first, ho na?

My son had this last month after his school sports day and continuous coaching classes. He came home completely drained and ran a mild temperature. I made him rest, gave him fresh lemon juice and warm soup, and he was fine the next morning. Please take care and don't push yourself too hard.

I was actually researching this topic because I felt warm after a heavy gym session. It turns out extreme fatigue mimics inflammatory responses in the body, which can sometimes spike your temperature. Quite fascinating how our system reacts to stress!
