Rest is what I'd recommend too. Should it get worse, take some aspirins and call your doctor. Forcing yourself to take a cold shower is also something to consider should the tempreature rise.

Hey, a quick question before I go to watch Anime.
How logical and physiologically explainable would it be to go jogging 3.2 kilometres and not going to school for 8 hours in the same because of fever? I'm just planning my scedhule for tomorrow. |

Uh... the reason why you aren't going to school is because of the fever and you are to jog 3.2 km. Don't jog with a fever... but then moving around and sweating is fine I think... For me I tend to lose my fever in the day... and then it comes back when I sleep. Odd

Then again, while yesterday I could barely walk straight, I can make sudden moves( only slightly slower than normally). However, it's the mindwork that's irritating. Mental frustration seems to be much more of an issue than physical workout. Also, keeping in mind that the current Tuesday schooldays have the absolute worst lesson schedule I've ever had, 8.15 AM to 4.05 PM, 8 lessons, including 2 maths, a Russian, English, Physics and Chemistry, it's bound to mentally frustrate! Believe it or not, English is the most annoying of these lessons - My teacher likes to say her piece and argue, and I tend to disagree with her opinion. Anyway.. The place where I got the idea from was my brother "You know what helps against a low fever? Lets' go jogging tomorrow morning." His sense of logic isn't always perfect, so I don't know what to do. An important thing to note is that I have a fever of only 37,2 1/2. Some consider this 'Healthy, fixed and ready to go.' But there are 2 factors in illness, which are the temperature and the ill person's feel(awareness of symptoms), more important of which is the second one. And I don't feel completely fixed yet. But I really just don't know. This post was rather meaningless in some points(because of the illness, maybe) but it's too long to delete. |

Hope your illn 'uss' ( sorry, couldn't resist [img]tongue.gif[/img] ) clears up soon. What temperature units are they? Celsius? And are you sure anime is the best thing to watch [img]smile.gif[/img] with the bright colours and stuff? Well, you gotta do something [img]smile.gif[/img] ...I'd stay away from your brother until you clear up

I can answer that.
The body produces a fever to try to nuke out the nasty invading forces and help the white blood cells along. By reducing the fever, you make it easier on the nasty invading forces.

Don't go overboard with fever induction however, hydration is very important so make sure to drink plenty of fluids whilst allowing a fever to work for you.
