Why you SHOULDN'T treat a fever | Doctor explains

- If you think about it, a fever is a protective mechanism for your body to get rid of infection. It makes it harder for bacteria and viruses to replicate so that your immune system can get rid of them quicker. So when we're sick should we be trying to suppress that fever with medications like paracetamol or acetaminophen? And why is it so common to treat fevers with these antipyretic medications?

I have a fever and no pain killers at home, and now I'm trying to convince myself that this is actually a blessingđ
Same
Tumeric my friend. At least take that.
Hi Sofia, thank you for your message. Normally I never take any paracetamol, but this time the terrible pain (also keeping me from sleep) was too much.
Good luck.
Yes.... exactly....sickness is actually a blessing in islam âš
@@Roc-Righteous yeah i did that
I had a 102.1 fever yesterday, and rather than trying to treat it and cool myself down, I packed on more clothes, wore a wool cap to keep my head warm, and even put on gloves. Then I went to sleep underneath my comforter. I woke up all wet from all of the sweat, but my fever was totally gone. My temp went back down to 98.
Amazing
Completely anecdotal but I've always let my fevers run their course and generally my illness goes away quicker than others in my family.
I had a fever and didnt drink paracetamol.
2 days i started hallucinating and completly disassciated for 3 weeks.
As a med student, that was the stupidest thing i did
Fever at 39.5-40° c for three days straight. I usually donât take medication unless itâs a last resort but this is the first time in my life having a fever that high I had no choice. It was affecting my ability to move, think, eat, sleep and bathe.
Do whatâs best for your body.
I wonder if it would be better for the body if instead of making you shiver to a point you can't walk it would make you want to actually move like run
That's right I feel like this is misinformation because your body will literally start shutting down if your fever gets too high so at a certain point you need to consider lowering your core temperature for your safety
Growing up, we never treated a fever unless it was a high fever because you can get febrile seizures if it gets too high. We rarely got sick and we kicked sickness quickly when we did come down with something. To this day, I don't take any meds unless I really REALLY need them.
Bingo. The two questions I always silently ask myself are these:
- What does my body need to treat the problem, not just the symptoms?
Rest, fresh air, chicken soup, fasting, or what.
- Are the symptoms severe enough that they actually constitute a problem of their own?
A high fever, not just your typical. Another example is lower body pains bad enough to cause limping which does more harm than a few anti-inflammatories.
@Edward Elizabeth Hitler Are they forcing you to eat?
@Edward Elizabeth Hitler Do not dismiss the power of determination. It does not guarantee to solve an issue, but it is often the difference between recovery or the ugly alternative.
We live in a time where quitters are now sometimes celebrated, but quitters are still losers.
The will to fight is up to you, but you can think of people who can inspire you. If it's possible for one then it's possible for others. Many others have been down that road determined to pass through and come out recovered and they succeeded because they refused to give up, to give in or to back down.
@Edward Elizabeth Hitler how are you now?
@Edward Elizabeth Hitler are you ok now?
My grandmother always said let the fever kill the germs .
grandmas sure have a solution for everything :)
She would be right.
Your grandmother also tortured cats
@@mathaddict7575 This is good and all and I would choose it over taking NSAIDS.
But most people dismiss the idea of using food as natural medicine and boosting the immune system enough to eradicate the bug before resorting to increasing the bodyâs temp.
.. sorry for the run on sentence lol
Grandma is smarter than today's doctors.amd health professionals
simpler explanation:
fevers are what cells put out to try and eliminate a disease or virus. hence it wouldnt make sense to stop the fever because its what a cell puts out to stop viruses and diseases
MY Hybrid approach to fevers is: I only take something for fever reduction when I go to bed, because in my opinion: a good nights sleep and the benefits from the rest outweigh the benefits of the fever. However when im awake during the day, suffer through it. It sucks, but I have found that I am sick for a shorter period of time if I just let my body do what it needs to do. Supply the troops with lots of water, eat meals that go down easily and raise your spirits, and the battle will be won in no time.
Also when I fall asleep with fever I have the worst nightmares
Thanks for sharing this. My opinion too
Well said, I agree with you.
Makes me think that this is another good reason for exercise - it raises your temp which might be killing viruses that we don't even know we have yet. Hmm.
Unfortunatelly not true. I do boxing and weightlifting and get sick as much as anyone else
Thanks! I was telling someone all this and she rolled her eyes and said a fever is hard on your organs. Sent her this. Hopefully sheâll watch and educate herself some!
It is.. esp on the chest area above the breast bone. Protect that area
I have a whole family with people who takes pills for everything, in case of, or just because its better. For whom?
I dont.
@@Levandetag I canât see the difference between drug addicts and pill poppers. Same crackheads for me
If she reads the comments she will know who you are talking about lol
41 Celsius = about 105 degrees farenheit
I think we understand that our body has a fever to fight off the infection. But the purpose of taking fever reducers is to not feel miserable and be able to get through work or school etc. Itâs not going to stop your body from fighting the infection. If it did, people would never get better.
One good reason for medication is to have good sleep. Suffer during daytime and at night have higher quality sleep for better recovery
Yes, I've heard this explanation before. Our body is still fighting so unless it's really high we still must observe.
â@Joe H 39 C or greater
Data is that fever reducers doesn't decrease the fever duration. But that it helps you be more comfortable.
I have been compelled to be my own best doctor for well over a decade now. It's refreshing to see some in the medical establishment catching up.
Yes ....i was soo glad to see that he didn't tell us to take any expensive medications....like other doctors...who does that for their money đ
@@aimansaleem636 doctors don't make any money off of prescriptions
@@nawfuls5946 Perhaps not directly. But Rockefeller medical institutions (which is pretty much all modern hospitals and the pharmaceutical industry) , train their doctors to write prescriptions for dang near every single little ailment a patient presents himself/herself to the hospital for.
My mom was once sent to the hospital by her employer (because it happened at work) for sudden heart palpitations. All they did was perform an ECG and toss her a bottle of aspirin and high blood pressure medication.
Bill: $4,000
Her employerâs insurance paid for it but if it didnât .. damn.
How the hospital splits that money, who knows. But thatâs the most expensive aspirin Iâve ever seen lol
Same here, except 3 decades for me.
â@@nawfuls5946no they just become super filthy rich!
Excellent advice. Thank you!
Excellent information. This is something I have been wondering about for sometime now, why i get fevers what is the use of it... now its all clear ! thanks
Currently recovering from the worst flu I've ever had and I couldn't go through it without painkillers... I had a fever for 7 days straight, a very high one at that, on the 3rd day my fever was so high I passed out and hit my head on my bathroom sink. Had to get stitches and will have a permanent scar on my head.. So yeah.. I'll keep taking painkillers if my temp is higher than 38.5°C
Start introducing ALL the essential nutrients your body needs. This not only means vitamins and minerals, but make sure theyâre bioavailable. Most common store bought multivitamins are NOT bioavailable. If your pee comes out bright highlighter yellow after taking them, your body is not absorbing them. Besides, most common multivitamins are synthetic crap. Iâd suggest going for natural organic grass fed organ meat multivitamins.
Highly nutrient dense, and highly bioavailable.
Iâd also pay special attention to probiotics. 80% of the immune system is in the gut. Again, natural forms like organic apple cider vinegar, sauerkraut, kefir .. etc rather than store-bought capsules.
Medicinal mushrooms contain something called beta-glucans that significantly boost the immune system.
I have not been sick for 4 years after doing all this.
As for the scar lol depending on the type .. you might have success using a derma-roller and applying copper peptides or colloidal copper.
@@PeaceNinja007 you recommend taking all these even when you are sick? (Fever)
@@eliaspkay I actually caught a cold last month. I suspect itâs due the fact that Iâve been completely slacking off my « healthy » routine lol .. And also stress from starting a new job ..
But i took care of it in 2 days using these remedies.
I drank a lot a lot of organic apple cider vinegar. This took care of the infection in the throat but noticed I still had some sinus issues. So I bought a nasal rinse and filled it up with sea salt and a couple drops of 2% Lugolâs iodine. Would rinse with it multiple times daily.
Good as new in 2 days.
Before I knew all this a common cold would last me 2 weeks.
I didnât get a fever but if I did, i would do all this and add some immune boosters like organic vitamins, minerals, grass fed bone broth soup and rest. This is what Iâd do if it were a mild fever. A more serious one, I would pull out the big guns but .. theyâre a little unorthodox.
@@PeaceNinja007 Thank you so much! I will try these! Atleast ask my friend to help me with these! Im struggling so hard to even type this but I just canât deal with this fever/ sore throat and nose anymoređ© Also been having stomach problems and throwing up idk shit is intense⊠I hate being sick. Im also a âautoimmune personâ which means I have harder time to recover?
Do you have any special brands for the multivitamin or the other supplements you mentioned? Hard to find good quality these days.
I heard Dr Bert has good products? It is expensive tho but might be worth it đ€·đŒââïž
@@PeaceNinja007 One thing I just wanna mention is what Iâve done so far but no significant results.. just tiny
Drink a lot of Water / lemon juice
Ginger Shots with Turmeric
Added some Himalayan salt in my water
Ate half an avocado / carrot
Hot bath ( to sweat out fever)
Worked 2nd day BUTâŠ
One big mistake.
I was eating a fucking cinnamon bun and one cake sliceâŠidk it was my birthday 14th and just got sick then my friend encouraged me to eat some of it đ when I knew it isnât good but ye sometimes itâs hard in the moment..
BUT as I knew It just destroyed me the other dayâŠso thatâs on me..
Today feeling a biiit better but still have these issues I mentioned earlier.
Thanks for the video. That is how I was thinking (don't take paracetamol etc.) untill the terrible muscle and joints-pain stepped in last night (still going on) due to corona.
Friendly greetings and stay healthy.
Hi even I have the same but no one to talk to. Howâre you feeling rn?
@@Zeus.thunder Hi Zeus,
I hope you are fine now.
Fortunately my family is around. Allthough I try to do everything myself, I can ask them for (little) favours.
Good luck to you.
Thank you for this info!
When I had covid I tried to take this route and I layed in bed watching TV ..miserable as balls with a letting my 102 fever "run its course" , after about the 5th day I broke down and took some ibuprofen and felt absolutely normal for 6 hours. It was wonderful.
I have COVID right now and thatâs why Iâm here lol I took ibuprofen too, definitely not letting it run its course
Covid is not the same as just a basic fever
Influenza is much more dangerous and spreads quicker than covid. I had no symptoms when i was covid positive.
In fact flu kills more people than any other virus.
@@danielag1898NGL, it felt the same.
Iâm trying to wonder if I should take something like before bed, because it really hurt when I try to sleep, lay down and just chill. Anytime I get a fever it just hurts and makes me lose my mind.
Try a good quality Tumeric supplement.
Well put Doc .
Great content. Liked AND subscribed. Thank You. đ
currently sick plus backpain and its the worst. I couldnt stand it in the morning because I was at 39 celcuis and took one ibo and it really does help such much getting thetemp down and feel less pain, especially headache. Now I am contemplating if I should take another one before sleep or not :(
Please do. Think of it this way, your body would benefit so much more from getting a healthy, substantial amount of REM sleep to help the body fight the infection. If the fever is keeping you awake at night, this is not worth it. Sleep/rest, hydration, and nutritional foods (such as foods with high Vit-C or natural Anti-Inflammatories such as Tumeric) are going to be your best friend as your sick, presumably with the Flu. Get better my friend
P.S. A little tip, binge your favorite Netflix or Hulu show to pass the time :)
41 degrees Celsius??? Thatâs 105.8 degrees Fahrenheit. That high can potentially be dangerous. Are you talking about children or adults?
So I didn't watch all but my grandparents made me sweat my fevers out with a warm sock of deer corn round my neck and covered me with blankets and set oj and water next to me for hydration. How about tjis treatment?
I take ginger, turmeric, clove powder, blackseed oil caps, dandeliin root tea, Breathe Easy tea, lots of lemon, and water
I'm taking them so I don't have the conjuring back pain when I have a flu
I was just about to run downstairs and buy some aspirin but now imma just Thug It Outđ
Me too, bro! đđđ

How dare you say "THIG IT OUT". That's rcist and cultural appropriation, you should be more conscious of minorities feelings and the use of their words in a negative way. Time to grow up. Not to mention it's insulting to the POC speaker in the video. Do better.

@@MeThemUs I was just surfing CZcams getting ideas to bring down my transgender toddlers fever and was just appalled that there are racist comments everywhere. He's on puberty blockers and triple vaxxed, so it doesn't make sense that he keeps getting sick. I bet it's all the non-GMO foods...
When I was a kid, age maybe 11, I had a irresponsible babysitterâs, she and her husband refused to turn on the air conditioner in the car, therefore I got a real bad fever and passed out. Some hours later I woke up in the hospital ward, and the orderlies made me take a cold bath which broke my fever.
It was shocking, some 3-4 days later my mom decided to come visit me after going off to Alberta, and she tried taking me out of the childrenâs ward of the hospital, to which I was a ward of the state and I had no idea I was in the process of being placed into permanent foster care, the hospital staff threatened to call the police if I was taken away from the childrenâs ward of the hospital. but my doctor was there and he decided to let my parents sign me out of the childrenâs ward of the hospital.
What if i wanted to just sleep out the cold, if i took a strong ass weed edible instead of a tylonol pm would that solve the issue?
Hlo sir first time at your video my question is that who many time to wait solve fever by body or after reproduce cells
Sorry for week english
nah bro, i just had fever of 38.5 to 39.0C. It makes me feel weak and walking a few steps makes me feel faint like I'm going to black out any time. Taking paracetamol may prolong the sickness BUT it makes me feel a lot better and I wouldn't feel breathless when i walk 100m to buy food.
please to everyone out there, don't wait till you reach 40C to start taking pills.
Same here
This feels like a dangerous proposition... Better to be safe than sorry maybe? As in, take fever suppresing meds rather than risk very high fever?
I started getting sick yesterday and had feaver the same night so I made sure i was extra warm to kill the disease.
What's the implication of such a fast process , does it mean my immunity was fast in recognising the problem.?
fever is just body emergency way to kill pathogen dont forget to drink more water
well i had a fever now for 3-4 days now of 100% degrees US numbers .
and now have a slight headache and drinking alot of water and having night sweats. i dont know what to do . just taking ibuprofen to ease the heat down .
My fever was 39,5 because of serious inflamation . This does not go away on its own
Definitely need ibuprofen at least
Celsius or fahrenheit
Right now i am suffering from high fever, headache, body ache, runny nose, sneezing, pain around my eyes , ears and sore throat. My blood pressure and oxygen levels are normal.
THANK YOU DOCTOR !!!
Help I am new ra am 56 and I was diagnosed in February even though I've had a severe symptoms for 3 months finally got diagnosed and I've been on Hydrochloricquine win just for a few weeks now and then I got really sick again up to 104 influenza which ive never had covid and barely a cold. and Hospital gave me fluids and ibuprofen and then theu tell me when I get back home just keep taking ibuprofen and I was wondering if I stop taking Hydrochloric win would give a chance though ibuprofen I'm really scared and I'm also on Tamiflu and now I have 103 xt 200m Hydrochloric win and I thought maybe if I don't take the hyrocloroqine it will help let body from the influenza
Very nice, tasteful. Let's see Eichenwald (2004)'s study.
We should probably mention that the onus is also on the general to understand research methodologies and the peer review process before jumping into medical journals.
Unfortunately, scholarly publications donât have the same standards and commitment to academic integrity as they used to.
But is it safe 103 or higher fever for 4 year child or to take medicine
Currently have a fever of 101.4. my wife keeps trying to get me to take Tylenol. I told her no the fever is good if it gets close to 103 I'll take meds but if it doesn't get that high I'm good.
How about children? I do get it that as adults it's different but how about children's temperature especially if it reaches 38 or 40?
I'm taking paracetamol for the pain tho, allergic to aspiring, is there a pain killer that is non addictive and not antiinflamatory?
Thank you so much for this video Doctor. I'm having fever right now but Im concerned about taking paracetamol because I have gastritis. I'm just getting thru the night with drinking water.
I have COVID and I took pain killers but itâs not helping bc I still have chills and a low grade fever and waking up sweaty.
Stop it. Get some help. đż
Well done!
If you have hyperpyrexia, you should be running to the hospital, not take a truckload of antipyretics. Sure, you'll take one or two depending on maximum daily dosage, but people shouldn't be misled about this.
Yes, and that even applies to ppl who don't have their kitchen cupboards overstocked with casserole dishes.
@Edward Elizabeth Hitler It's humor.
Pyrex is the brand name for high quality oven safe kitchen bowls and casserole dishes, hence the problem of someone who hoards them in abundance could be called hyperpyrexia.
@Edward Elizabeth Hitler np :)
Where are your sources??
42 degrees is 107 Fahrenheit. Will a person be even concious to take paracetamol?
Iâve let my fever run but it seems to last 3-4 days and makes me unable to go to work is that too long?
I don't got high temp during fever...only headache and tiredness y?
I only take ibuprofen when I can't stand the fever. Otherwise I let my body do it's thing.
Thanks Doc
What if it's bacterial?
I have a fever and it's averaged at 101.8-102.7°F and I barely ever have medicine when I'm sick but I just had tylenol when I wanted to see if I should have or not. So what should I do to get better?
Usually when growing up I used to take meds at the first sign of a mild headache but as I've grown up I've thrown that idea out the window and only use meds for extreme situations, I'm currently dealing with covid and when it comes to the rigors making me sit at 40 degrees shaking like a leaf for up to an hour even after having 400mg of ibuprofen and 1000mg of paracetamol I feel like it might as well be a death sentence to not use them and risk rising past 40
Same I have the covid flu too ... It feels just like when i had influenza type A 2 years ago the body aches and headache and chills have been so severe especially early in the morning between 2 and 5 am that's when it gets the worst and my fever strikes up the worst.

What if you have a fever, because your neck caught a cold? I know that we must drink a lot of liquids in that case, especially warm ones( but not hot!) Warm tea will do it for you, it will treat your mech because it's warm
Only if it is is dangerously high (103 F or 39.5 C)
Sometimes a fever can kill, so it depends... on the circumstances
It's not the simple fever then.. đ
The point of this video is.. Dont treat your low level disease/illness.
Flu, mouth ulcer, fever, coughing, etc.
But if it's so serious, then that time you need to go to the doctor.

Feel a bit better after a day or so.
If a fever makes it hard to fall/stay asleep, is it it worth taking something before bed?
That's what I'm wondering. Rest is important to fight an infection, too. I have a fever of 39,5 celsius or 102.2 Fahrenheit. I can't sleep, which makes my headaches worse and makes me feel delirious. I feel like I'm legitimately losing my mind.
I would guess that you should first attempt non-pharmaceutical interventions, like a bath, or cold compress, or some kind of herbal drink beer if any of those can help you fall asleep, good. If you have really tried everything though and you still can't doze off, I suppose it's not the worst thing in the world.
I'd rather sleep comfortably and my body fight while I'm asleep then my body fight while I'm awake uncomfortably even if it takes an extra day or 2 more than not taking anything at all
@@DM-nw5lu I doubt it is the temprature making you sleepless. How is your sleep normally?What may your illness be? It is a very good thing to have a fever high enough to stop the germs, I'd elevate it some more by hot bottle, hot water to drink, woolen clothes.
What is the cause of your headache? One can't just make up that itr i9os due to the temparature. You won't lose you rmind if you accept your fever and state,settle down calmly with it, welcoming it to do its job, thanking your body that it has such good ability to react to germs and help you fight them. REad Deppak Chopras book on sleep. If sleepless, one gest good rest even by lying calmly with a positive mindset. Think about nice things, pray. It is not a very high temp.,
Did you sleep acceptably before this illness? if yes= no worry. Ive been sleepless f 23 years. BAd of course.
What is the headache cause? Do you drink enough (boiled) water? Did u have them before the illness too?You jabve to give specific facts in order to get the right answers/help. Why not consult a NAturopath or sth like it?
If it increases or stays for very long, you might treat yourself with cold-water wraps around your ankles.But I think it is no danger at only 39,5 normally.
Do you eat light meals 3 x a day? BEcause lack of food makes me sleepless.
MAybe all is well now 2 weeks after...?
@Ganesh Thakur His name is Dr.Evil? Lmaooo
So, sounds like NOT taking the medication COULD make for a speedy recovery or a boatload of issues with regards to elevated body temperature.
On the other hand, itâs unknown what happens long term to take the medicine at the first sight of fever and/or discomfort.
After taking time to look into the actual science of it, I find it interesting but donât have a definitive answer yea or nay.
For the record, I always monitor my temperature and try very hard to avoid any medication in attempt to let my body figure it out. However, the older I get, the less patience I have for the misery.
My fever right now is relatively low at 101.0 f but I will keep an eye on it and probably take Tylenol or ibuprofen if it gets above 102.
Is it normal to get sweet test in mouth with fever??!!
My fever won't budge, it's been 4 days, I'm on antibiotics too (prescribed by the doctor for 5 days). All I have is a light cough and a little difficulty when swallowing, no itchiness in the throat. Been having a fever after every 6 hours.
Itâs been already 8-9 days for me, I have been prescribed antibiotics and other medication, Iâm getting fever every after 5-6 hours too. If youâre already healed please help?
I don't see any studies posted that back this up . Can you please post your references in the description ? This is science after all.
Like you would actually read the paper or check out the referencesâŠ.pfft
Oh dear, and what may be the reason for that, do you think? Check out the history of big pharma .
And how sensible are most studies. Why waste resources to find out things known for thousands of years?
You might read Dr Vogel: "The little Doctor", or somene you choose. Or search on YT, innumerable talks and expalnations.
Sorry, I am in a bad place, having worked and researched for decades to get well, got hindered and am too exhausted to have much patience.
Whenever I get sick witch is once every 2 years,I use fruits,veggies, & tea no pills
Itâs honestly annoying to tell me donât treat my fever when I feel like complete trash
This exactly. I feel like people who are in the comments saying to just try a hot bath to sooth your 102 F fever probably have milder fever symptoms. Even with a fairly low-grade fever, the only thing I'm dragging myself out of bed for is to empty my bladder when I can't hold it another minute. Summoning up the concentration necessary to type out a comment on CZcams is not happening, let alone drawing a bath and sitting upright in it.
I usually don't treat my own fever but when my kids were little I was so scared of it spiking and bringing harm to them that I always treated their fevers immediately. Looking back now I wish I would have let their fevers ride, to a certain extent.
Eichenwald 2003 isn't a person. Eichenwald is a person and they wrote something in 2003 which is being cited.
I only take them if I have and important job to do, like I am very ill today and I also had my finals exam today. Naturally I used them to help with my weakness and headache.
Is 103 degrees Fahrenheit hospital vist worthy or no?

Challenge the status quo = threaten the pharma money flow
I am in the mids of a fever. My mom used to say with medications it lasts one week but without medications it lasts seven days.
1 wk is 7 days. She saying it takes the same amount of time??
Lots of medical healthcare providers are afraid of the consequences of high fever. Yes, youâll die from high fever as your internal organs dies off from overheating.
It wouldn't reduce the time of the infection- just because of feeling really extremely sick...
Ive had a fever for 2 days in the year almost 3 Iâve been missing school
I'd prefer to have fever and know when I'm reasonably healthy again when it goes away. Currently running a 39° fever. How much weight can we lose if the body temperature is bumped by 2 degrees? Paracetamol is costs money and does very little for one's wellbeing.
that's probably true before I never ever drink medicines when Im sick now im so messed up because of this medicines đ
cat! hahaha đ€Ł btw thanks for this informative video..
It depends on how high and how Long the fever is. Sleep is KEY to healing . And if you are in too much pain to sleep ...you can't heal...... my rule is keep it at 100 or lower . Any higher or uf can't sleep.. or lasting too long .. then yes .. gtta get it down. I don't get rid of the fever ... I Lower it to a bearable level that I'm able to sleep
Immune system: there's a virus increase the temperature!
Body: but immune system I can't survive that either.
Immune system: Shame.........

Well, yesterday sudden shivers at work for 2 hours, then got back home, fever of 102, all over body aches and incredible muscle weakness. I said Iâd ride it out. My fever usually last 6-7 hours straight and then I sweat , and all sorts of things come out of my nose. Yesterday within 3-4 hours, fever was 104.7, slurred speech, repeated words unconsciously, dizzy, extremely weak. Ok, took Tukol & Advil, did cold compress with cold water/ vinegar, took 1.5 hours for the fever to go down to 100. Fell asleep for 9 hours straight. Today I woke up w/o sweat, I wasnât out of the woods because I broke the fever with pills and pharma liquids ⊠dang!!
