covers on top and hot water bottle

every thirty minutes as long as you

your fever has disappeared. II the

had through applying q cold compress
to the forehead.
This sweating should be continued

followed by brisk rundown. This
sweat may be repeated each day for
the first two or three days.
An enema should be taken morning

essary, since It is not advisable to
expose the patient for too long a
time to the cold air. If the fever
remains high and the patient does
not sweat. he should be given warm
sponge baths every hour until he
starts perspiring.
