Answers:
I would first like to ask, how high has your temperature been!? Is it only low-grade, like 99-100, or higher!? Generally MD's don't consider anything a fever until your temperature is over 101 degrees farenheit!.

Are you having any other symptoms besides the fever!? If not, I would contact your physician!.

In the meanwhile, if your temp is over 101 I'd try Motrin every 6 hours!. (Tylenol is good for fevers as well, but is harsh on your liver so I avoid using it if possible!.) Try pushing fluids, 8-10 glasses a day as long as your not on a fluid restriction!.

Sometimes having a low-grade temperature is a good sign that your body is trying to fight off infection, and taking medications for such can sometimes be more detrimental than helpful!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's probably the flu that has been going around!. Everyone has had this low grade fever you are talking about!. Regulate it with motrin if you have body aches that are with it!. Letting it get up too high is dangerous but it's normal if it is this flu strain!. The fever has been lasting around 7 days!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

To add on, keep clean by taking showers!. The hot temperature always makes me feel more comfortable!. Also, keep eating your vegetables!. If you know someone who may know about herbal remedies, I strongly suggest you ask him or her!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Alright this is gonna sound so cheap, but chicken noodle soup, and a morning watching television wrapped up in a blanket always works!.

Also ramen noodles if you don't have chicken noodle soup works just as well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wt u can do is drinking black tea!. First of all, boil the water and put some tea with 1-2 mint leave!. Dont put any milk or cream!. When your tea is ready drink it and u will c that !.!.!.!. u will sweat a lot and your fever will go down !.Www@Answer-Health@Com
