Jvarasura, is the personification of fever in Hindu tradition, Jvarasura meaning ‘fever’ in many Indian languages. He is the consort, and sometimes the attendant, of the pox-goddess, Shitala.

According to one legend, Jvarasura was born out of sweat of the fore-head of meditating Shiva and was a threat to the Devas. Once Vishnu was inflicted with the fever of Javarasura, when in the form of Haya-griva. He then killed the fever-demon by cutting him into three pieces using his cosmic-disk weapon, the Sudarshana Chakra. However, Jvarasura was later revived by Brahma, who joined the three parts. But by that time each three parts had grown a head and a limb. Thus Jvarasura is depicted as having three faces, three feet and remarkable ability to move in all directions at once.

The cult of Shitala-Jvarasura is widely popular in Bengali culture.
