Having a fever is not a bad thing, it helps to get rid of unwanted bacteria and organisms in the body heat. In your brain, you have your hypothalamus. When it senses bad bacteria and bad organisms, it increases your body temperature to fight it. Dont worry, a fever is not a disease.
Here are a few things that can help to naturally decrease a fever
1) place an icepack (a cool washcloth works) under your armpit, forehead for a while, not just 10 minutes, it should take a longer time to slowly decrease your body temp
2) a warm bath....not too warm and not too cold..it really does help
3) drink plenty, i mean plenty of water, gatorades...no sodas, no energy drinks
4) home remedy quite often used: basil
* boil basil in water
* put the basil in milk
* add a teaspoon of sugar
* add another teaspoon of cardamom
Dont go about too much, you will get dehydrated....
