    There is this possibility.

    Emphysema is a pathological condition in which the airway distal to the terminal bronchioles is deflated, overdistended, inflated, and has an increased lung volume, or is accompanied by destruction of the airway wall. Emphysema is a characteristic manifestation of COPD, which is a general term for chronic bronchitis combined with pulmonary emphysema.

    Patients with emphysema often have a series of clinical manifestations such as wheezing after exertion, but fever is not a clinical feature of emphysema. Therefore, emphysema generally does not cause fever, but if emphysema patients are co-infected at the same time, it will also cause fever, so we need to actively control the infection and choose appropriate antibacterial drugs**. At the same time, the body temperature should be controlled within the normal range, and methods such as drug cooling and combined physical cooling can be used.

    If you have a low-grade fever, you should first drink more water, it is best to drink plain water, pour water from a large cup and drink until you can't drink it anymore, go to the toilet several times, and part of the virus will be excreted from the body.

    Then you can also boil ginger syrup at home to drink, slice or chop the ginger and add brown sugar to boil, drink it while it is hot, and then sleep and sweat, when the fever is not serious at the beginning, this method is very ineffective.

    You can also use the physical cooling method, pour warm water, soak warm water with a towel, and wipe the body, especially the forehead, armpits, palms and feet.

    If the fever is not enough, but it has been burning for a while, you can go to the hospital to see what caused it, and then take the medicine prescribed by the hospital. After curing the cold and inflammation, the fever will naturally subside.

    Emphysema is one of the types of respiratory diseases, which generally have a slow onset and are often accompanied by a history of chronic cough and sputum production. Therefore, it is also important for emphysema patients to get better as soon as possible.

    1. Damage to the lungs: due to the damage of alveoli and capillaries, the task of inhaling oxygen and excreting carbon dioxide cannot be completed, resulting in hypoxia, so that the lungs are damaged, it is difficult to breathe, and even threatens life safety.

    2. Harm to other organs: In severe cases, carbon dioxide in the blood is elevated. Hypoxia can affect the functions of the heart, brain, kidneys, liver and gastrointestinal tract, and cause corresponding symptoms.

    3. Danger to life: the harm of emphysema is slowly penetrating, there are generally no obvious symptoms at the beginning, this disease is easy to be ignored and dangerous, once the lungs are destroyed, the remaining tissues can not maintain the function of oxygen delivery in the body, endangering the life of the patient.
