Temperature without symptoms - normal or pathological?

As a rule, many people think that a person’s body temperature should always be 36.6 ° C, so with a slight fluctuation in it, they immediately begin to sound an alarm, especially if there are no obvious reasons for this. But not everyone knows that a temperature without symptoms can be observed in a completely healthy person, for example, in the evening after work. But it is worth considering that here we are talking about a slight increase in it. After all, if the temperature rises to a large extent, then this may already indicate the presence of any disease, moreover, serious.

temperature without symptoms

Let's take a closer look at what could be the reason for this:

  • With neurological disorders, a temperature without symptoms can indicate the presence of vegetative-vascular dystonia.
  • Metabolic disease, as a result - dehydration.
  • The presence of allergies is one of the reasons when a temperature appears without symptoms. Its causative agents can be both simple drops from a cold, and any other medicines. In this situation, it is better to consult a specialist for advice.
  • Overheating is the most popular reason for increasing body temperature in young children, especially infants. This can happen when it's hot enough on the street or at home, or the baby is too wrapped up, so parents need to make sure that the child is dressed according to the weather, and the room where he is always ventilated.
  • In children, fever without symptoms may be due to teething. Also, this condition can occur after vaccination, especially if it is performed with live vaccines.
    cold without fever

In general, the most common cause of fever is a cold. Experts believe that in this way the body struggles with the infection that has penetrated into it. Therefore, if there are signs of a cold, but there is no increase in temperature, then we can assume that there is an undiagnosed disease. Very often there are cases when a disease with similar or identical symptoms can be much more serious and dangerous than a common cold or ARI. An example is a disease that most recently scared the whole world - bird flu. By all its signs (cough, runny nose, aching joints and sore throat), it is very similar to acute respiratory infections. Many people think that this is just a simple cold without fever and do not pay enough attention to the disease, letting it go by itself and making a huge mistake.

signs of a cold
Often there are people who have an elevated body temperature - a feature of the body, and they get so used to it that they live quietly all their lives. Also, the asymptomatic temperature, which fluctuates around 37-37.2 ° C, is considered normal in children, because they are very mobile, which means that their blood circulation is at an accelerated pace.

But nevertheless, in order to prevent dangerous diseases that may not manifest themselves other than temperature, the first time you raise it, you should consult a doctor and take some tests. Already on their basis, the doctor will prescribe the necessary treatment for you or will make you happy that everything is fine with you.
