Symptoms Of Septicemia

Fever And Chills

A fever and chills are some of the most common initial symptoms of septicemia. Septicemia symptoms begin very quickly and tend to have an intense onset. Even when it's the beginning stage of the sickness, individuals often look extremely sick. You may experience this fever after having an injury, localized infection, or surgery. The fever occurs when your immune system raises your body's temperature as it attempts to fight off the infection. Chills happen alongside the fever.
