You don't necessarily want to treat a fever, especially a relatively low fever. See info at <http://www.mercola.com/2000/dec/17/fever.htm>.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 Ibuprofen is what we use when really needed. Usually a tepid bath works to lower fever. fever - how to treat? > > > Hi, > My 2 1/2 year old awoke with 102 fever, and I really don't like to give > him tylenol since I > understand it can be hard on the liver...is this true? > > What can I do to make him more comfortable in the future? > > Thanks!

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Hi again, Well, I never really use anything to lower the fever other than Homeopathy to keep him comfortable. I just worry ever since his Autism Panel showed his natural killer cell activity to be very low. Everything else on the panel was pretty much in range. I'm so confused. I'm afraid that his body won't be able to handle a virus due to the low NK cells...and yet, he's unvaccinated and may have to confront chicken pox, etc. On a positive note, his language almost always improves after a virus. It might be from the homeopathy. The last classical remedy we gave him, called Agaricus (per his homeopath) seems to have turned him into a chatterbox. Weird, but so welcome. Thanks for the replies!
