Thank for asking
Your concern being appreciated, low grade fever need to be ruled out for some chronic infection and it can not be taken as granted, but important is it has to be low grade fever and it should not just a worm feeling and not exact febrile condition, get done the routine blood test, blood culture test, and other imaging studies, low grade fever is really challenging for physician it demands several investigations, some time it could be functional too may not be having any specific reason or reasons, hope this information helps.
