Physical cooling methods
Physical cooling methods help lower body temperature without medications. This can include using a cool damp cloth, lukewarm baths, or keeping the room comfortably cool. It works by helping the body release heat, but should be done gently to avoid shivering, which can actually raise temperature. It’s best used as a supportive measure alongside medications if needed. Helps with comfort, but doesn’t treat the underlying cause of the fever.
