JAKARTA - A fever is a condition when the body feels bad, weakness, chills, or has a mild fever. Although often taken lightly, this condition can be the starting sign of various diseases.

This condition can be caused by various factors, ranging from hormonal disorders to nutritional deficiencies. Here are 8 causes of fever that need to be watched out for, as reported by the WebMD page.

1. Hypothyroidism (Tiroid's Weight Is Less Active)

thyroid glands in the neck produce hormones that regulate the use of body energy. If it doesn't work properly, you can experience hypothyroidism. Symptoms include fatigue, constipation, slow heart rate, and difficulty dealing with cold temperatures that can cause chills.

2. Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Sculpture)

This condition occurs when blood sugar levels drop below normal boundaries. Symptoms include sweating, chills, moist skin, and the body trembles, weakness, anger, hunger, and nausea until blood sugar levels return to normal.

3. Malaria

This disease is caused by parasites that enter the body through the bite of an infected mosquito. Malaria does cause fever, but chills usually appear first. Some people experience repeated attacks, ranging from chills, fever, sweating, then returning to normal, which occur repeatedly.

4. Kidney stone

Kidney rock is formed from minerals and salt that clots in the kidneys. This stone is ejected through aureter, which is a channel that connects the kidneys to the bladder. If a rock is caught and causes infection, you can experience chills, nausea, and fever.

5. Hypothermia

Being in cold temperature for too long can make the body lose heat faster than its ability to produce heat, which causes hypothermia. Symptoms include great chills, memory loss, cadel talk, confusion, and excessive drowsiness.

6. Panic Attack

Panic attacks not only affect the mind, but also cause physical symptoms such as difficulty breathing, sweating, dizziness, chest pain, and chills. Because the symptoms are similar, many people think a panic attack is a heart attack.

7. Anemia

Anemia occurs when the body lacks red blood cells so that it cannot transport enough oxygen to the body's tissue. Symptoms include fatigue, weakness, and cold. If anemia gets worse, these symptoms can also worsen.

8. Malnutrition

Some vitamins and minerals are important to maintain body temperature, such as zinc, copper, and iron. This lack of nutrients can make the body more prone to cold and chill easily.
