A member asked:

Any home remedies for a fever?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Define "home" ?: Most homes have access to over the counter acetaminophen and or ibuprofen. These are suitable first line treatments for fever. Your post implies there might be something else but if so I doubt it would be effective.
