I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing a high fever of 103°F. Here are some important steps you can take:
- Take fever-reducing medication: You may consider using an antipyretic like paracetamol (acetaminophen) to help lower your fever and relieve discomfort. For example, a medication similar to "99F 650 mg Tablet" can be used as directed by a doctor.
