Q.

What is the reason for sourness during fever?

1 Answer
Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year ago
A. During a fever, the body's temperature regulation system is disrupted, leading to an elevation in body temperature. This increased temperature can result in a variety of physiological changes, including decreased appetite and alterations in taste perception. d As a result, some individuals may experience a heightened perception of sour tastes during a fever. Moreover, the body's immune response to infection can also impact taste perception. In particular, the release of inflammatory mediators and cytokines during an immune response can directly affect the functioning of taste receptors on the tongue, potentially leading to changes in taste sensitivity.
