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.

View allI accidentally swallowed my tooth, and I'm really worried about what might happen. Could this harm my stomach? Should I get in touch with a doctor right away? Is there any chance this could be dangerous?
Don't worry, swallowing a tooth is generally harmless and rarely causes significant issues; the tooth will likely pass through your digestive system without being digested, and come out intact in your stool within a few days
