Answer:

Fever or elevated body temperature might be caused by:

A virus.

A bacterial infection.

Heat exhaustion.

Certain inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis — inflammation of the lining of your joints (synovium)

A malignant tumor.

Many illness-causing microbes do best at the body's normal temperature. A fever raises the temperature beyond which certain microbes need to reproduce. A fever also kicks your child's immune system into high gear, spurring the rapid production of bug-clobbering white blood cells.
