"How to say 'fever' in English?"
"Fever" is the English term for '发烧'. It refers to an increase in body temperature, which can be caused by various factors such as infections, heat exhaustion, or other medical conditions. When a person has a fever, they may feel warm, sweaty, and have chills. It is important to note that a single digit temperature (e.g., 38.9°C) is generally considered a fever, while a single digit temperature below 0°C (e.g., 35.7°C) is usually not considered a fever. If a person's temperature exceeds this range or if they experience severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing, confusion, or seizures, they should seek medical attention immediately. In addition to medication and rest, drinking plenty of fluids and avoiding exposure to extreme temperatures can also help manage a fever.
