Types of Fever

🌡️ Fever Has Many Faces — Identify the Cause Before the Cure

Introduction

Fever is one of the most common symptoms seen in clinics and diagnostic centers across India. Yet, many people assume all fevers come from mosquito bites or can be treated with antibiotics. In reality, fever is only a symptom — and understanding its underlying cause is the key to effective treatment and faster recovery.

At Kalnostic Diagnostics, we believe in diagnosis before prescription. Our AI-powered automation and advanced Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) help identify the real cause of fever with accuracy, speed, and reliability — making lab management smarter and patient care safer.

🦠 Types of Fever and Their Causes

Fever can arise from different infections — bacterial, viral, or parasitic. Each behaves differently, spreads differently, and requires different treatment.

🔬 1. Bacterial Fevers

Caused by bacteria that invade the body through contaminated food, water, or air.

Examples: Typhoid, Leptospirosis, Brucellosis, Pneumonia, Tuberculosis, Scrub Typhus.

Key Note: These may require antibiotics — but only after confirmation through laboratory testing.

🦠 2. Viral Fevers

Caused by viruses that spread through air, mosquitoes, or direct contact.

Examples: Dengue, Chikungunya, Influenza, Japanese Encephalitis, COVID-19, Hepatitis A & E.

Key Note: Viral fevers do not respond to antibiotics; supportive care and rest are often sufficient.

🪰 3. Parasitic Fevers

Caused by parasites that enter the body through insect bites or contaminated food and water.

Examples: Malaria, Kala-Azar, Filariasis, Amoebiasis, Toxoplasmosis.

Key Note: Diagnosis requires microscopic, antigen, or molecular testing for accurate confirmation.

💡 Why Accurate Diagnosis Matters

Not all fevers are caused by mosquitoes.
Not every fever needs antibiotics.
Correct diagnosis prevents complications and misuse of medicines.

Overuse of antibiotics leads to antimicrobial resistance — a major public-health challenge. Accurate laboratory diagnosis helps doctors choose the right treatment plan.

At Kalnostic Diagnostics, we combine AI-driven precision with clinical intelligence to streamline every stage — from sample collection to report delivery — ensuring faster turnaround time (TAT) and minimal human error.
