Question
What are the reasons for a fever that doesn’t go away?
Answer
If you have a high fever that persists, you can try the following methods to bring down the temperature: 1. Medication: Antipyretic and analgesic drugs have the effect of reducing fever and can be purchased at a pharmacy. The staff will keep them in stock. It’s best to use the medicine when the fever is low, with a body temperature above 38.5 degrees, and take the medicine at least 4-6 hours apart. 2. Physical cooling: Gently wipe the neck, armpits, and groin with warm water, or apply ice packs to these areas. It is recommended to visit a regular hospital to find out why you have a high fever, as treating the underlying disease is the fundamental solution.
