Is fever normal after chemotherapy?

Fever after chemotherapy is not a normal phenomenon. It usually indicates that there may be some problems in the body that need attention.

Although chemotherapy drugs can effectively kill cancer cells, they may also damage healthy cells, resulting in decreased immunity of the body, which is a common cause of fever after chemotherapy. In addition, chemotherapy drugs themselves may also cause some side effects similar to fever.

Therefore, if fever symptoms occur after chemotherapy, it is recommended to seek medical advice promptly, conduct relevant examinations, identify the cause of fever, and carry out targeted treatment. At the same time, good living habits should be maintained during chemotherapy, nutrition should be strengthened, and immunity should be improved to reduce the risk of infection.
