Is a high fever of 39 degrees from lung cancer serious?

A high fever of 39 degrees generally refers to a high temperature of 39°C. A high fever of 39°C in a lung cancer patient may not be serious or it may be serious, and it needs to be judged according to the specific cause of the fever. The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Possibly minor situations: If the patient's environment temperature is too high and he or she does not open windows for ventilation, this can easily affect the body's heat dissipation function, causing the body temperature to continue to rise. If there are no other discomfort symptoms, it is usually not serious. The patient can move to a cool and comfortable environment in time to help lower the temperature.

2. Potentially serious situations: If the patient also has symptoms such as cough, hemoptysis, and difficulty breathing, it may be a fever caused by worsening of the disease, which is usually more serious. It is recommended that the patient take ibuprofen sustained-release tablets, afatinib maleate tablets, gefitinib tablets and other medications as prescribed by the doctor.

It is recommended that you take personal protection measures in your daily life to avoid getting cold and causing the disease to worsen. If the disease does not improve, you can go to the hospital for examination and treatment to avoid delaying the disease.
