Can Engorgement Of Breasts Give Rise To Fever?
Usually not. Some mothers do get fever, but it is not high. The fever is not accompanied by symptoms like chills, ‘a general feeling of being unwell’ and body ache, and does not last more than a day or two. If it does, your doctor may consider the possibility of an infection that may need antibiotics. In the presence of an infection, the mother feels unwell and may also have a chill.
