How to reduce high fever naturally?

I'm not a fan of taking too many medicines, so I was wondering. Are there any natural ways to reduce a high fever? My mother always talks about some home remedies.

I tried curing my high fever naturally with herbal drinks for three days, and ended up with severe pneumonia because of the delay. Please go see a doctor and get proper tests done before it gets complicated.

While natural methods like wiping with wet cloth are good for immediate relief, please don't rely only on them. My uncle's fever turned out to be a severe infection that needed proper antibiotics, so get a doctor's checkup.

You can drink warm water with tulsi leaves and ginger to help the body sweat and cool down. Along with this, place wet cotton cloth strips on the forehead and keep changing them every few minutes.

Hydration is your best weapon here. Drink plenty of warm water, coconut water, or vegetable broth to flush out toxins. Avoid any workouts and give your body 100% rest to heal itself naturally.

Natural methods can support recovery, but a high fever is usually a sign of an active infection. Please monitor your temperature with a thermometer and consult a physician to find the actual cause of the fever.
