Why is it easy for me to catch a cold and have a fever after exercising muscles?
Before answering this question, let's take a look at what a cold is:

Cold is mainly caused by respiratory syncytial virus, rhinovirus, adenovirus, coronavirus and parainfluenza virus. Besides the common cold, acute upper respiratory tract infection also includes acute pharyngitis, acute tonsillitis, acute laryngitis and acute tracheitis.

What are the factors that cause colds?

When there are inducing factors such as catching cold, getting caught in the rain, and being overtired, the local defense function of the whole body or respiratory tract is reduced, viruses or bacteria that originally existed in the upper respiratory tract or invaded from the outside can multiply rapidly, causing diseases, especially those who are frail, lack of exercise or suffer from chronic respiratory diseases such as sinusitis and tonsillitis.

Analysis of the causes of common cold and fever after muscle exercise;

(1) Exercising muscles may lead to excessive fatigue and decreased body resistance, and cold viruses can easily enter, causing colds and fever.

(2) It may be related to fitness season and weather. As we all know, it is easy to catch a cold and break out the flu in spring and winter. This may be due to the large temperature difference between spring and summer (easy to catch cold) and humid weather (easy to breed bacteria).

(3) It may be related to fitness places. Many gyms are poorly ventilated or basically unventilated, which is conducive to the spread of cold viruses. Especially if one or two people in the gym catch a cold, it is easy to spread it to other fitness people.

Summary:

It is easy to catch a cold and have a fever after exercising muscles, which may be related to one of the above reasons or a combination of several reasons. In order to prevent colds, you should pay more attention.
