What should I do about my high fever?

I dont feel good at all. im home alone and I have a reallly high fever. I have a fever of 104 and it got up to 105. I feel like im gonna pass out! what do I do? im gonna be home alone all night too

Answer #1

DO NOT TAKE A COLD SHOWER, make it cool or luke warm at this high of a temperature, cold water could send your body into shock! Do not freak out, though this may be hard right now, but panic may elevate your temperature Can you take any ibiprofen, advill, tylonol, ect? The body elevates its own temperature to help fight off infections, bacteria, viruses and more this is usually a harmless yet pesky response However, with this high of a temperature, it can be harmfull, call 911 imediately REMAIN CALM

And remember always call 911 if: you have a temperature of 102 or higher you vomit blood or have bloody stools (poop/diarea) you are experiencing shaking or seizures accompanied by the fever your fever does not respond to medication

Get help, or in severe cases call 911 if: you have any unusual symptoms or symptoms that can not be explained fever does not respond to medication for some people with certain medical conditions fever can be harmful if not deadly

ps call 911 if the above symptoms occur in someone you know, keep them cool, not cold! this could sve someones life

ps I hope you feel better soon

Answer #3

Phone anyone you can and try and find a friend/ family member or anyone to come and sit with you. If you really get bad and no one can be with you then try phoning the ambulance service and explain what is going on- they should be able to advise you.

In the meantime take some paracetemol if you have some in the house, as that reduces temperature. Also use ice packs (or a cold, wet wash cloth) on you to keep you cool.

Answer #4

105! You should have passed out 2 degrees ago girl! Are you sure its that high? Usually by that time you would be too incoherent to type. Why are youy on here asking us? you should be calling an ambulance if you are scared ! Take Tylenol that is a fever reducer as well. Hope your alright, and learn from this not to waste time online, always call for real help!
