Extended data:

A cold and fever refers to the symptoms of fever that can often be caused by a cold. The occurrence of colds is mainly due to physical weakness and weakened disease resistance. When the climate changes dramatically, because the internal and external functions of the human body can't adapt, evil spirits take advantage of it and enter through fur, nose and mouth, thus causing a series of fever symptoms.

Fever refers to the situation that pyrogen directly acts on the thermoregulatory center, and the thermoregulatory center is dysfunctional or causes excessive heat production and reduced heat dissipation, resulting in an increase in body temperature beyond the normal range.

A cold and fever have both advantages and disadvantages for human body. When you have a fever, the immune function is obviously enhanced, which is conducive to eliminating pathogens and promoting disease recovery. Therefore, if the temperature is not too high, there is no need to use antipyretics, just pay close attention to the temperature change. When the temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees, take antipyretics in time.
