Hi,
Thanks for your question on HCM
I do understand your pain and discomforts
As per your history is concerned you have fever so meet a doctor today for a clinical examination. Do a CBC with differential if possible also check for
malaria because fever can be due to virus, bacteria and parasitic origin. Take plenty of water. Take
paracetamol for fever and pain. Specific treatment will be given by your doctor after investigation reports, you can do few things at home to reduce body temperatures -
1)Soak a wash cloth in cool tap water, wring out the excess water and then sponge areas like your armpits, feet, hands and groin to reduce the temperature. Also, you can place
cold, damp washcloths on your forehead and the back of your neck. The cloth pieces should be changed regularly after a few minutes. This remedy is beneficial when dealing with a
high fever as it helps keep temperature under control.
2)Make a tea by mixing one teaspoon of basil with one-fourth teaspoon of pepper in one cup of boiling water. Steep for five minutes, and then strain and drink the tea. Drink it two or three times daily.
Hope that helps
