Feeling hot all over but no fever

I believe everyone has experienced the feeling of having a fever. When you have a low fever, it feels like it is drizzling inside your body, a numb feeling. When you have a high fever, you will feel very cold, with cold hands and feet. Many people cannot judge whether they have a fever because they always feel burning all over their body but the temperature is not high when measured with a thermometer. This is mostly because there is fire in the body. So what should you do if you feel burning all over your body but don’t have a fever?

This condition is called low-grade fever. Low-grade fever in traditional Chinese medicine also includes normal body temperature but feeling feverish, hot hands and feet, hot flashes in the afternoon, or high body temperature at night but normal during the day.

If your basal body temperature is low at ordinary times and is within the normal range during low fever, the discomfort may be caused by autonomic nervous system dysfunction. You can check your blood routine. If the examination supports a viral cold, you can try treatment with Antelope Cold Tablets and Puganmin Granules. Remember to drink plenty of water.

Western medicine believes that low-grade fever can be divided into two categories: infectious low-grade fever and non-infectious low-grade fever. Infectious low-grade fever can be caused by tumors, blood diseases, endocrine diseases and some infectious diseases; non-infectious low-grade fever is a functional low-grade fever, generally with normal body temperature and fever after activity.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that: when exogenous pathogens invade the human body, the struggle between good and evil can cause fever. Overeating, fatigue, emotional depression, old food, phlegm, blood stasis, etc. can cause prolonged fever. Deficiency of qi, blood, yin and yang, and dysfunction can cause low-grade fever. Deficiency of qi, blood, yin and yang can cause low-grade fever. There are also a few patients with low-grade fever who start with external infection and develop deficiency of internal organs due to long-term illness.

It is recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up to see if the infection lesion can be found. If the infection lesion can be found, symptomatic treatment can be given; if the infection lesion cannot be found, it should not be an infectious low-grade fever. At this time, you should find an experienced Chinese medicine practitioner to make a careful diagnosis to see what exactly caused the low-grade fever, so that the right medicine can be given to cure the disease.
