I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing a fever. Here are some steps you can take to manage it:
Medication: You may consider taking an antipyretic (fever-reducing) medicine like Dolo-500, which contains paracetamol. It helps reduce fever and relieve mild to moderate pain. However, use it as advised by a doctor and follow the recommended dosage.
Hydration: Drink plenty of fluids such as water, herbal teas, and fresh fruit juices to stay hydrated.
Rest: Ensure you get adequate rest to help your body fight the infection.
Monitor Symptoms: Keep track of your temperature and watch for any worsening symptoms such as difficulty breathing, persistent high fever, severe headache, rash, or confusion.
Avoid Alcohol: If you take medications like Dolo-500, avoid alcohol as it can increase the risk of liver damage.
If your fever persists for more than 2-3 days, is very high, or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms, please consult a general physician promptly for a thorough evaluation and appropriate treatment.
