Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Can a puberty cause a fever? My 13 yr old son has started getting the dark facial hair and hair on legs and arms is darkening. His voice cracks. Last week he woke me complaining of a severe headache and when I touched him he was very hot. I later took him to Urgent care and they checked for Flu and Step and both were negative. Dr said just plenty of fluids and pain/fever reducer. a few days later he was fine. Now a week later same exact symptoms.
Hi, It seems that there might be having some infection, viral or bacterial or parasitic. Go for complete blood checking like TC, DC, Malarial parasites, ESR etc. After reoports go for treatment accordingly. Puberty has nothing to do with fever. Give him light diet. Givehim plenty of water and liquids. Ok and take care.
