Pyrexia is the most common symptom that is presented by a disease. It is of the utmost significance to diagnose the cause of a fever. An inaccurate or delayed diagnosis can pose significant risks to the patient's health. In this article, we present a 32-year-old male with a continuous fever, loss of appetite, and other constitutional symptoms. Every month, between the fifteenth and twentieth days, fever occurs. The diagnosis remained elusive despite numerous investigations. It is also important to understand the different presentations of fevers. For a successful diagnosis, it is critical to take a thorough medical history, identify the fever pattern, perform a systemic examination, and evaluate the patient through proper investigations. The report also discusses different homeopathic remedies that can help with the treatment of such fevers. In cases of PUO, it is best to start with a symptomatic approach to identify the most similar remedy.
