Mridula:

Make him sip HOT water

Madhur: Warm water with little turmeric powde. This can be sipped, a few times during the day incase of low grade fever. It can jelp reduce inflammation and body aches. 

Kadha may be given during fever with cold, flu. This is a link to one such recipe. https://inaweofnature.blogspot.com/2019/06/kadha-for-throat-pain.html

Roopa:
1. Drink adrak + tulsi juice with water since its is natural antibiotic, temperature needs to be monitored. 

2. Wet water bandage or pani patti can be applied on forehead. 

This is to be done a few times if the fever is very high,  adds Madhur. 

Mona: I start a juice fasting of fresh Orange juice, until my temperature reduces; it normally takes a day or two.

Nitin Dhawan: Over the years, it's been my understanding that fever or any such natural body's reaction should not suppressed or repressed by external, chemical medication.
Fever is body's natural reaction to fight infection and it should be allowed to do so. One should take it easy during fever and if it is high, one should take proper rest.
And rather than treating fever, one should look at the root cause of fever i.e. the underlying infection, and strengthen the body's capability to fight it.
Monika:
Yes, watching it for 3-4 days while taking lots of fluid and rest.  If it does not improve, consulting a medical practitioner may be needed.
