Hello,

There are no definite data of advantages of inducing fever therapy for the Autism patients and hence I do not recommend to go for the same without adequate confirmations. Still if I get further data from any of the sources, I would like to get back to you through this online platform for sure. Till that time, you should focus on available psychological treatments with supportive care of family, friends, school and groups for always. After all, autism requires a holistic approach in best possible management of the child at its best levels.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
