Fever itself is a symptom of an illness, so try to know the underlying cause and treat the cause – fever will run away on its own.

There is loss of water from the body (in the form of sweating which is essential), so to compensate this loss it is very important to keep yourself well hydrated. Besides water include fruit juices, vegetable soups, broths, coconut water, beet juice or carrot juice.
Make an herbal tea by mixing equal parts of thyme, chamomile flowers and linden flowers (1 tbsp) in a cup of water. Boil and strain this and drink this tea 4-5 times a day.
If you feel nauseated to eat or drink anything, suck a small cube of ice.
If the fever rises above 102 or 103 then use cold wet compresses on the forehead to remove the extra heat.
Don’t stop feeding yourself, when the temperature raises the body requires extra fuel. Eat soft palatable, hot food to fight the infection and make your immune system stronger. This will also help to fight your weakness and body pains.
