Patient's question:

A 10-year-old child has a fever of 38 degrees Celsius. They applied a cool towel to their head and took fever-reducing medicine half an hour ago. Now he is feeling hot and sweating. Can I use a cool towel to wipe his body?

Cover the blanket, sweat, and only then can the fever go down.
