📋Overview
Field fever is a legacy term historically used to describe febrile illnesses acquired in outdoor or rural environments, often associated with exposure to insects or ticks. It is not a specific diagnosis but rather a nonspecific descriptor for fever occurring in field or wilderness settings. Modern terminology classifies such illnesses based on the specific infectious agent or condition, such as tick-borne diseases (e.g., Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever) or other vector-borne infections.
