What Is Steven Johnson Syndrome?
5. High Fever
Fevers are quite a common symptom and people of all ages are likely to experience them at some point. A lot of people are likely to take some paracetamol or similar to take the edge off and then maybe get an early night. Fever is also a symptom of Steven Johnson syndrome, but still at this stage the patient is unlikely to suspect something serious.
The fever associated with Steven Johnson fever is a high fever, often coming in at 38C or above. While fevers are not usually something to be concerned about in themselves, patients should still be monitored if the fever gets too high.
