    Sometimes a fever must run its course. You cannot rush it - you can only wait for it to break with the medication he's already taking.

    Sometimes, sipping on a mug of hot chicken soup - or even chicken broth will help keep him hydrated & improve his strength.

    bypass for a lengthy walk outdoors with out a jacket even if it is iciness or it is raining. Sleep with your window open and dont use a blanket, lick a grimy floor (which includes the school floor), im useful something like this would get you ill. Its no longer not hardship-free
