Suggest Treatment For High Fever And Chills

Hi. My 22 months old baby has high fever and chills for 2 days now. No sickness simptoms. Just the constant high fever. I give him iboprofen which helps only for couple of houres. He had never had chills before. No diahrea. Yes on vomiting but i think its from high temperature. Is it true that 7up can help reduce fever? Thank you.

Hi, 7up is a cold drink and it doesn't help in relieving fever, this is a wrong perception. You can give paracetamol syrup for fever. Cold sponging can also be done to decrease fever. Take care.
