Fever
corroborated
Short answer
Fever is a clue shared by several disease routes. Combine it with other symptoms and exposure history.
Also: fever · hot forehead · wiping forehead
What to do
Check for coughing/sneezing. Check for recent infected wound. Check for unsafe water and gastrointestinal symptoms. Use the matched disease article instead of treating fever in isolation.
How it works
Fever can appear with respiratory disease, cholera and later wound infection. The site should use it as a branch in diagnosis, not a final label.
