How to care for sweating after a cold and fever

Patient's question:

Last night I had a cold with a high fever of 37.8°C. In the morning, I came down with sweat. When leaving the office, I forgot to bring my hat and got blown by the wind. Now I have a headache and feel a bit heavy-headed. How should I be treated, Doctor? I am 30 years old, male.

Doctor's answer:

First, in such a situation, consider whether the patient has respiratory transmission. It is recommended that the patient first pay attention to drinking more water and monitoring their own body temperature. If the temperature is below 38.5 degrees, it is necessary to use antipyretic drugs under the guidance of a doctor to reduce the temperature to the normal range. At the same time, in this situation, it is recommended to use antiviral drugs when necessary.
