Scrub typhus in children (tick fever or jungle fever) is an acute bacterial infection that spreads to humans. The disease often occurs during the rainy season, in places with many bushes and is quite dangerous if not treated properly.

Scrub Typhus, also known as Tick-borne Fever, is a disease caused by a bacterium called Orientia tsutsugamushi. Scrub typhus is transmitted to humans through the bite of a mite that transmits the bacteria to humans. The disease has symptoms similar to other acute fevers, making it difficult to diagnose.

Tularemia can cause lymphadenitis in many forms such as lymphadenopathy, abdominal or intestinal form, pulmonary form (bronchitis, pneumonia), disseminated form or primary septicemia or pharyngeal lymphadenopathy. Depending on each type of lymphadenopathy, there are different clinical manifestations.
