Does children diabetes cause fever?

Patient's question:

It's a child from my relative's family, and they are really pitiful. They have just been carefully checked and found to have diabetes, so we pay close attention to many things for them. Will children with diabetes have a fever?

Doctor's answer:

Sometimes in life, babies may experience recurring fever that doesn't subside. Adults often treat it as a common cold and continue treating it, even if it doesn't work, without considering diabetes. Generally, diabetes can cause fever, so it's especially important to pay attention. Regarding diabetes as a hereditary disease, the symptoms of recurrence in children usually include thirst, increased appetite, and frequent urination, but weight loss may still occur.
