Fever is not all that bad. It's your body's natural attempt to destroy invading bacteria and other sickening organisms that can't survive the heat. If a fever is making you uncomfortable, or is interfering with your ability to drink, eat or sleep, treat it. Here are some natural ways to lower your fever…
Place a cool, damp washcloth on your forehead
Take a luke warm bath Drink plenty of fluids and consume ice pops and yogurt
Take a pair of pure cotton socks long enough to cover the ankles and soak the socks in cold running water. Wring out all excess water and put the socks on. Cover your cotton socks with pure wool socks to supply insulation. Stay in bed for the rest of the night and cover yourself with a blanket as well
Cut back on eating. There’s no need to waste your body’s energy on digestion when that energy should be used to fight the infection that's causing the fever
