Drinking plenty of water
Increased temperature in the body results in dehydration. With dehydration, a person may feel even more warm and uncomfortable. So, the first important step is to keep the person hydrated.
Taking small portions of water frequently will help. For children, a few tablespoons of water every 10 minutes should ensure that they have adequate liquids in their bodies.
Hydration helps feel comfortable and reduces the heat in the body.
Sponging
Sponging is a very good technique that reduces high body temperature in children and adults, who are confined to bed due to the illness.
A sponge or a towel is immersed in cold water, partially squeezed, and placed on or used to clean the body’s surface. This is repeated multiple times to bring down the body temperature.
Sponging is usually done on the forehead, chest, groin area, and wrist.
Lukewarm baths
A lukewarm bath is one of the best methods to reduce body temperature.
Taking a shower with lukewarm water relaxes the muscles and soothes the body.
It relieves stress and provides energy.
Vitamin C
Taking food rich in vitamin C reduces oxidative stress and improves immunity.
Drinking lemon juice with lukewarm water is an effective natural cure for fever, as well as colds, flu, and other diseases.
Nutritious food
Eating food rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and minerals is essential to improve the immune system that combats the illness. With a strong immune system, you get back into shape soon.
It is important to keep your stomach on the lighter side during fever because the digestive system weakens with illness.
Soups
Eating soups that contain herbs (such as basil) and spices (such as capsaicin and pepper) will improve blood circulation and cool down the body by producing sweat.
Broth-based soup provides energy and essential nutrients to fight the disease and bring down the body temperature.
Fruit juices
Fresh pressed fruit juices provide the body with necessary sugars and vitamins that help regain strength. This increases energy in the body and enhances the immune system to fight against the illness.
This is one of the best ways to hydrate the body and cool it down.
Comfortable clothing
It is recommended to wear light breathable clothes such that the temperature from the body escapes in the surrounding environment and provides some relief.
