How do you bring down a fever?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Fever is just a symptom of any underlying infection or inflammation and it will come down only when the cause is treated. Cold water either in the form of drinking or tepid sponging helps in controlling core body temperature in fever.

My son has been dealing with a health issue and I'm really worried about him needing surgery. Can Ayurveda help him recover without going under the knife? I've heard mixed things and want to know if it's a safe option to explore before considering surgery. What are the chances of him getting back to normal with Ayurvedic treatment?
Depends on his condition; Ayurveda can help mild cases—choose a qualified Vaidya, but don’t delay essential allopathic care if urgent.
