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.
What Causes Extreme Fatigue, Profuse Sweating, Fever And Chills In A Teenager?
My son is 17 years old. He has had lower back pain and hidifficulty walking over the past couple of days. We believed this to be due to a few preceding incidents. However, today he slept most of the day and was sweating profusely. Now he has a low grade fever, has the chills and his coloring is off (grayish / greenish). Is there any condition that I should be concerned about?
In my opinion, he should bring to the doctor and get done a clinical examination, blood pressure monitoring, ECG, 2d echo, CBC and other routine blood investigation.
If all these are normal then no need to worry much. Sometimes stress and anxiety related symptoms are also there.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Kaushal Bhavsar, Pulmonologist
