Fever....no time......what to do??

Question

Yesterday I woke up and I was fine...after some time I noticed that I was a little hot...after some more time I was more hot and in the evening I checked my temperature and it was 38!!! What the h**l??? I didn't eat drink anyithng that I shouldn't have. I'm going to be flying to Montreal in 1 day and a half... it's going to be very exhausting because it will be my second time flying alone... and I don't think this fever will help. I need to get better really fast...I tryed everything... the temp got a little low last night but now it's 38 again...I've been taking medicine non stop...calling doctors and stuff. I must get better within 24 hours. I really need some help.

I'm 15 years old if that matters.

Answer 1

Your flight is in a day so you might  just be better by then. In the meantime drink heaps of fluids and take paracetamol to lower your fever and most importantly take it easy. If by the time you have to fly you've still got a fever and feeling off call your doctor or a hospital and ask them for advice, I'm not a doctor, most people on this site aren't so it's best to ask someone who actually knows how to help. When I had a fever of 39 my doctor told me not to fly because the conditions on an airplane can make you alot worse and spike a fever and they also advise you not to fly if you have a virus.
