Headaches caused by fever require immediate cooling measures, such as physical cooling or oral fever-reducing medication. A massage for the head can also help alleviate symptoms. Good habits are also beneficial for preventing diseases. Pay attention to rest, avoid overexertion, ensure sufficient deep sleep, don’t stay up late, eat more vegetables and fruits, digest vitamins to greatly enhance immunity, and engage in moderate exercise to strengthen the body. Additionally, apart from treatment, patients need to maintain a regular routine, do a good job of keeping warm and cold prevention, eat more light and soft foods in daily diet, ventilate frequently, and drink more hot water.
