When u have a fever do u hear stuff?

Last time I had a high fever, I remember hearing some strange sounds, almost like buzzing, when trying to sleep. My mom said it was just my imagination. Is it common to hear things or experience unusual sensations when you have a fever?

When I have a fever, I mostly focus on keeping hydrated with nimbu pani and light, easy-to-digest food, mostly vegetarian broths. Hearing stuff, though? I haven't experienced that myself. If it's happening, you should definitely talk to a doctor, it sounds like something to get checked out, not related to diet or simple fever.

Hmm, hearing things during a fever isn't typical for a common fever. High fevers can sometimes cause hallucinations or delirium, especially in children or elderly, but it's not 'hearing stuff' in the usual sense. If you're experiencing this, it's best to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying issues or extreme fever effects. It's not something to ignore.

I had a really bad fever recently, like 103 degrees. I was mostly just shivering and feeling super weak. I didn't hear anything specific, but I felt really disoriented and everything seemed amplified, like sounds were too loud. If you're actually hearing distinct things, that sounds a bit different and maybe worth a doctor's checkup, just to be sure.

When the body is unwell with fever, sometimes the mind can play tricks, or it might be very tired. Try to rest, drink warm water, and keep your thoughts calm. If you are hearing things that worry you, it is wise to speak with a kind doctor. Stay positive and take care of your peace of mind too.

I once had a very high fever and felt extremely disoriented, almost like I was dreaming while awake. I put it down to just the fever, but later learned it could have been more serious. If you're hearing things, please don't ignore it. It's important to get it checked by a doctor, as it might indicate a very high fever causing delirium or something else that needs attention.

Arre, jab bukhar aata hai na, tab toh bas body mein dard hota hai aur neend aati hai. Awaazein sunna toh thoda ajeeb hai. Humare gaon mein toh bolte hain, agar bahut tez bukhar ho, toh kabhi kabhi brain pe bhi asar hota hai. Tum doctor ko dikha lo beta, aisi baat sun kar achha nahi lagta.
