I have a fever right now, and it suck, What should I do?

Answer:
How high is the fever, and how long have you had it? Because you are writing on Y!Answers it can't be that high (yet).If it gets too high, seek medical advice.In the meantime, lots of hot drinks and sleep.Good hot drinks:
- YEP tea (a mix of yarrow elder and peppermint herbal teas)
- Hot lemon drink; cut a lemon into quarters, put in a pan and cover with water. Add some garlic, cinnamon, chilli, cloves and ginger. cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Add some honey. Put in a thermos flask and take it to bed with you. Drink as much as you can as often as you can.Sleep is the best healer.Fevers are the body's way of killing pathogens and speeding up the immune response. Keep warm and help the fever do its job.I hope you feel better soon.

How high is the fever? Is it over 101? Take Tylenol or the like and take a tepid bath. If it lasts for more then a day call your doctor. If it goes over 102 and you are unable to bring it down call your doctor sooner.

Take some paracetomol to lower your temperature. Put a cold flannel on your forehead. Have a tepid bath. If it gets worse, go to the doctors to rule out infection.

this depends on how high (if it's over 103.5 then i would make an appt to see your dr)otherwise, take ibuprofen to help lower it. take 200-400mg every 6 hours as needed but no more than 1200mg in 24 hours.dress lightly (cotton works best). dressing too warm can raise the fever.drink plenty of fluids. this will help your body fight off whatever has caused the fever and will also prevent dehydration.rest as much as possible.if the fever last for longer than 3 days-make an appt to see your dr as you might have an infection brewing that will require medication

go to the doctor........

Take something like Advil or Motrin. Tylenol is pretty much worthless with a fever. If your still sick in a day or two, or if your fever gets high, then you should call your doctor. I hope you feel better soon!

take 2 500mg tylenol (acetaminophen)
or you could take 4 200mg Advil (Ib Profen)
