How to treat shivering fever?

Welcome to this hilarious guide on how to treat shivering fever, a condition that makes you shake like a rattle! But before we jump right into it, let’s first understand what shivering fever is.

What is Shivering Fever? Is It Different from Regular Fever?

Shivering fever is not some fancy new dance move. Nope, it’s when your body temperature rises above normal (usually 98.6°F or 37°C) and causes you to start shaking uncontrollably. Don’t worry, though – it’s just your body trying its best to fight off whatever infection or illness has taken hold!

Now comes the age-old question: “Is shivering fever different from regular fever?” Well folks, I hate to break it to you but they’re pretty much the same thing! The only difference is that in shivering fever there can be more emphasis on ‘cold’ symptoms such as chills (hence the shiver), while high fevers typically cause hotter physical sensations.

But enough with all these technicalities, let’s move onto how exactly one can treat this thing.

All You Need Are These Simple Home Remedies

Who needs doctors and nurses when there are plenty of home remedies out there? Here are some simple ideas:

  • Get lots of rest (seriously)
  • Drink plenty of fluids (water over beer please)
  • Drape yourself in blankets for warmth (bonus points if they’re fluffy!)
  • Take pain relievers like aspirin or ibuprofen (but no candy)!
  • Take cooling baths or use ice packs (yes put ice cubes somewhere other than in your drink)

If you’ve got a doctor around then lucky for you – chances are they’ll prescribe something stronger than mere over-the-counter medicine. Whatever the treatment may be however, it’s probably advisable to pitch a tent in your bed for the next 24 hours or so.

How Can You Prevent Shivering Fever?

Prevention is always better than cure, right? Follow these simple tips and you may never have to deal with shivering fever ever again:

  • Wash your hands (like biblically)
  • Keep clean environments (no more hoarding like an episode of hoarders please)
  • Wear appropriate clothing for all seasons (hence avoiding hypothermia). (no Hawaiian shirts when it’s freezing outside, okay?)

It doesn’t take much effort folks! Just follow these steps and I guarantee that Mr. Shivering Fever won’t be knocking on your door any time soon!

When Should You Call Your Doctor?

Okay look – sometimes home remedies just aren’t enough. There are times where you’ll need a doctor’s intervention (and no…self-diagnosing via Google does not count). These instances include:

  • If symptoms persist after trying home remedies
  • Having trouble breathing proper breaths
  • Extreme abdominal pain
    (guys this isn’t too hilarious so let’s get serious here)

If any of those things sound familiar to you then grab your phone and call up someone who knows what they’re doing! It could mean the difference between life and death (cue melodramatic music).

Conclusion: Don’t Take Suffering from Shivering Feast Lying Down!

Well there you go people – everything you NEED to know about treating shivering fever. So remember, if chills start taking over, don’t worry yourself silly,” oh my god what should I dooooo”?’. Instead try out one of our many effective ways mentioned above and keep calm knowing relief will come sooner rather than later.

Wishing everyone warm temperatures (with apologies extended to my Aussie brethren)!
