PLEASE help, I don't know how to take care of him!?!


Question: PLEASE help, I don't know how to take care of him!!?
My husband woke up this morning at 5:00 with a slight fever of 100!.4!. I gave him some Advil (he's allergic to Tylenol)!. At 9:30, his fever had gone up to 102!.4!. I again gave him another Advil and had him strip down without any blankets!. Despite the lack of clothes, blankets, and advil I gave him, his fever continued to rise until 1:30 when it reached 103!.5!. I had him take a cool bath (pool temp!. water) for about 15 min!. He's now laying down with nothing but a thin sheet and cool washclothes on his head and under his arms!. The fever isn't coming down at all!. His head is pounding and he says he feels ready to vomit!. What should I do!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It is good that you put him in a cool bath!. Does he have any rashes or bites on his body!? Has he been around someone who was recently sick!? Has he been traveleing lately!. It would be something small like a bad case of the flu, but it could be something worse like typhoid fever!. My advise would be to take him to the hospital!. It is extremely stressful on the body to have such a hight fever!. A fever that is any higher than 103 degrees could indicate a potentially andgerous infection!.A fever greater than 106 degrees Fahrenheit can result in brain damage and possibly death!. Fevers greater than 106 degrees are very unusual!.

What are some other signs and symptoms!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

GO to the ER, the fever is pretty high and trying to burn something out of his system such as infection, virus, or something like food poisoning!. He will be dehydrated and he needs help with fluids to help bring it down, the hospital can give IV medications and control it more than you can!. Plus they need to find the cause of why he is sick!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Take your husband to the emergency room of the hospital!. A temperature more than three degrees above normal (or above 101!.6) could be indicative of a serious health problem!.

Forget the Advil!. Your husband needs to see a doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
