Is 38.1 a high fever?

It is not high at all, actually it is just a low-grade fever. Grab a thermometer, track it every few hours, and drink plenty of water. If you start feeling breathless or have a terrible headache, go straight to a clinic, otherwise let your body rest.

I had exactly 38.1 last week when viral was going around. It feels super irritating and heavy, but it's not dangerous. I just took paracetamol as advised by my doc and slept the whole day, and I was perfectly fine by day three.

Not a high fever, just a small body warning! Keep your diet light today, maybe some hot dal khichdi with a little ghee to feel cozy. Skip the spicy street food for a couple of days till your body temperature settles back to normal.

This is a basic low fever of 100.5°F. What you need to do is avoid heavy fans or direct AC blast which can trigger chills. Keep checking the reading every 4 hours, and if it crosses 101 or if you get a severe throat infection, get a proper prescription.

Arey bhaiya, thoda sa hi garm hai sharir, ghabrane ki bilkul baat nahi hai. Just take some warm tulsi tea and sleep under a light blanket. If the heat increases or you feel shivering, then we can show to our local doctor.
