The rash of climate change is now strong. Seasonal cold-cough and fever are also going on.

You may have already become infected and are at risk of infecting others.
If the severity of the disease is out of control, it is necessary to take the advice of a doctor. However, in the early days, there are some do's and don'ts of the home that can be cured without medication.
Fever treatment of some natural ways:
Rest: The more active you are when you are sick, the higher your body temperature will be. So if you rest, the temperature will decrease and you will get better quickly. Although medicines are not always needed to treat seasonal colds and coughs and fevers, it is safe to consult a doctor if the fever is 102 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. If there are symptoms like body ache, headache, stiff neck, vomiting etc. with fever, it is necessary to consult a doctor.
Drink plenty of fluids: If you seek medical help for seasonal illnesses, the first thing you should do is drink plenty of water and other fluids. This is because when the temperature rises due to fever, the body quickly goes towards dehydration. So enough water supply is very important here. Kusum hot water, fruit juice, coconut water, tea - there is no barrier to any liquid food. If you have a cold or fever, the daily goal will be to drink eight to 12 glasses of water. And drinking more fluids makes it easier for germs and other toxins to get out of the body.
Bathing: Applying water to the forehead and back of the neck is very effective in reducing fever. Wiping the body with a cloth soaked in lukewarm water instead of a full bath also helps to reduce the fever quickly. It is not allowed to take a bath in cold water with fever without the permission of the doctor. Otherwise the body may tremble and the fever may increase further.
What can not be done if you have fever?
Double taking the medicine: To get rid of the fever quickly, taking the medicine given by the doctor in double quantity or taking two kinds of medicine at the same time will not be of any benefit. Rather, it can be more dangerous than fever. Taking more drugs will not lower the body temperature quickly. However, doing so can damage various internal organs of the body, especially the kidneys.
‘Alcohol’ massage on the body: This is an ancient method of reducing fever. Which is not safe at all. This method is ineffective in most cases to cure fever. Rather, it can be called 'alcohol' poisoning.
Ice bath: Bathing in ice cold water or ice floating water may lower the body temperature, but it will cause shivering. As a result, the fever will increase further. While bathing in room temperature water is acceptable, bathing in ice cold water is irrelevant.
What to do if children have a fever?
If the child has a fever within three months of age, the Fever temperature should be 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit and should be taken to the doctor.
If the fever has crossed 102 degrees Fahrenheit between the ages of three to six months and the child is sleepy or crying a lot, he should seek medical help.
In case of a child between the ages of six to 24 months, if the fever is more than 102 degrees Fahrenheit and it lasts for more than one day, a doctor's advice must be taken. If you have diarrhea, vomiting and skin rash with fever, you must see a doctor.
