Kicking off #AskDocs now with an inquiry from a friend.

She's having an awful time with a 104° fever, body pain, and plaque in her throat, indicating infection.

I realized that despite all the research I've been doing on health recently, it's been almost exclusively on the preventative side, so I'm not sure what the best course of action is to recommend outside of eating healthy, sun, water, and rest.

Any other good fever hacks y'all would recommend where you've seen good results?

Thanks in advance! 👨‍⚕️⚡️

Absolutely! Fenugreek tea throughout the day will break the fever as well as clean the blood and all respiratory areas. Works great and fast! 🙏🏼🍀

Hard to say anything definitive without comprehensive medical history and diagnostics One challenge with online medical/dental advice is that self-reported symptoms vary a lot between individuals, even if guided by a clinician We're missing a big part of the picture - the signs that clinicians ca...

differential diagnosis is strep throat, mononucleosis( ebv ), acute nasopharyngitis (common cold). also consider thrush. More serious diagnoses would be peritonsular cellulitis and peritonsular abscess , the latter would require aspiration by a otolaryngologist or good Ed doc. if left untreated that...

La fiebre es normal porque significa que los anticuerpos están actuando y luchando contra el virus por dentro, de todas formas no es bueno que esté mucho tiempo con fiebre 🥵 Usar pañuelos bien húmedos y frescos en la frente
