Stress can cause low grade fever for years

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Low-grade fever is a common symptom in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. It is important to know since when you have noticed this symptom and if you frequently felt tired and in fatigue. This condition of low fever has been attributed to psychological factors including stress. The role of stress in all forms has clinically been found to be the precipitating factor in many patients.

On the treatment side, a chronic low grade fever does not require any form of treatment. Symptomatic treatment is to be taken when your sinuses get blocked or you have an infection.

Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.

Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Brief Answer:
Please get yourself clinically examined to rule out head or sinus infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writingback with an update.

A major oral surgery needs to be followed up with the surgeon. There is a possibility of infections involving the oral cavity extending in to the sinuses and cause low grade fever. Rarely there can be an infection in the brain that has evolved from the sinuses and can also cause the low grade fever. Please have yourself clinically examined and also report any headaches or symptoms like dizziness should you have any.

Hope your query is answered.
