Suggest Treatment For High Fever

Hello,



I've been sick for two days.....I went to bed with what I thought was a cold and woke up with a high fever, unable to move and almost hallucinating. I took one tylenol and patted my face with a cold damp towel, and the next time I woke up the fever had broken. I felt better (exept during the day I was weak and freezing) and started getting worse when I went to sleep. I woke up this morning salivating excessively (I think I had been swalling it all night) and now I've been drinking water, but it's not helping with the salivation.



Do you know what it is and/or what I should do?



Thanks

Hi,
It seems that you might be having viral fever giving all symptoms.
Take plenty of water and lemon water.
Take paracetamol as needed.
If not cured after 3-4 days, consult your doctor and get examined.
Ok and take care.
