You need plenty of fluids! Sports drinks, like Gatorade or Powerade, are best because they have essential electrolytes in them that your body needs right now. Fever depletes the body of fluids, so you need to rehydrate your body. Staying well-hydrated will help reduce the fever and help keep up your energy levels. Aside from that, you should get plenty of rest! Where I work, we usually recommend that you come in to see a doctor if your fever lasts more than 48 hours and/or you have any other symptoms.

Hope you're feeling better soon! [img]smile.gif[/img]
