10 Oral Thrush Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #7: Fever
A fever is an increase in body temperature above normal, and it is one way that the body deals with infections. It makes the body inhospitable to pathogens, which will, hopefully, slow an infection or maybe even kill it altogether.
If an oral thrush infection spreads beyond the esophagus, the immune system will step in to try and halt it with a fever. A fever is a sign that oral thrush is advancing, so seek medical assistance as soon as possible.
