How to give yourself a high fever?

I have a presentation tomorrow that I'm dreading, and I really need an excuse to miss it. Is there any trick to give yourself a high fever quickly? I need to look sick.

Honestly, trying to induce a fever sounds really counterproductive and potentially harmful. If you're feeling unwell, best to consult a doctor. Self-medicating or trying to manipulate your body can lead to bigger problems and more lost time from work/life. Please be careful.

Hey, I once ignored some minor symptoms and it turned into something much worse because I waited too long. Please don't try to give yourself a fever, that's not how health works. If you're not feeling well, just go see a doctor. It's always better to get checked than to regret it later.

It sounds like you might be going through something difficult, or maybe you're worried about your health. I understand how anxious one can get about these things. But purposefully trying to get a high fever is not safe at all. Maybe talk to a doctor about what's bothering you instead?

Fever is your body's way of fighting something off, not something you want to bring on yourself! I just recovered from a nasty viral fever, and trust me, it drains all your energy. If you're feeling sick, rest up and see a doc, don't try to make yourself sicker.

My dear friend, generating a fever on purpose is not wise at all. Our elders always say 'health is wealth', and it's true. If you are unwell, please speak to a doctor. They are the best people to guide you, not some home remedy or trick to make yourself ill.

Dude, don't even think about it. I once got really sick with a high fever and it was pure hell for days. Chills, body aches, no energy... not fun at all. If you're feeling down or sick, just go to a proper doctor instead of trying weird stuff.

Ugh, the only 'fever' I want is a deep sleep fever! Seriously though, intentionally getting sick sounds like a nightmare. As someone constantly tired, trust me, you don't want to add fever to your list of problems. Pls see a doctor if anything is up.

Abe yaar, kya baat kar raha hai? High fever is serious, not something you should try to get. If you're feeling sick or need a break, there are healthier ways. Consult a doctor, bhai. Don't play with your health like this.

I can only share my own experience here. Whenever I've had a high fever, it's been because my body was fighting off a bad infection, and it was a very uncomfortable time. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. For any health concerns, I always make sure to consult my GP.

Hello. As someone who manages high BP, I know how important it is to keep your body healthy and stable. Trying to induce a fever can seriously mess up your system and cause bigger health complications. Please, focus on proper diet, exercise, and regular checkups. Consult a doctor for any health concerns.

Uh, I'm new here, but this question sounds a bit concerning. Why would someone want to give themselves a high fever? Isn't fever usually a sign that something is wrong? It seems really risky, please be careful.

Beta, don't try to do such things to your body. Fever is not a good thing, it means your body is fighting. If you're not feeling well, eat good food, rest, and if it's still bad, go show yourself to the doctor. Maa Durga bless you, stay healthy.
