Is fever normal on the fifth day of orthognathic surgery?
Normal. According to Baidu Health, bone cutting operations such as mandibular angle and zygomatic bone generally adopt general anesthesia, so some fever symptoms may occur within 2 ~ 5 days after operation, which is a normal reaction after general anesthesia, and there is no need to worry about infection; In most plastic surgery, the postoperative body temperature will increase by 1 ~ 2℃, which is a normal protective reaction of the body. It is called endothermic in medicine, as long as the body temperature does not exceed 38℃. If the fever persists and there is no other unwell reaction in the whole body, there is no need to use antipyretic drugs. This low-grade fever will gradually subside in 2 ~ 3 days.
