6.During fever why we dis-like cool drinks?
7.During fever why we do not like to take bath?

10.Does will the fever kills germs?(The maximum temperature during  fever is  41 0c).

17.Normaly body temperature  is 37 0C and atmospheric temperature is 33 0C in kerala.During fever, body temperature increase to 40 0C and body starts shivering , even with the difference in temperature is just 7 0C .But without fever body may start shivering only if the atmospheric temperature is going below 17 0C, at temperature difference of  20 0C .So during fever just a 7 0C  difference in temperature causes shivering ,but without fever more than 20 0C required to shiver, why?
18.Even though medical science is very much developed,the basic fever itself is not understood properly.
A medical science avoiding these questions , we are failing to find remedy / treatment for fever.

“Our understanding of the neural basis of thermoregulation and fever is still rudimentry. The role of fever in the defence reaction is not clear. paracetamol may cause fever.In practice,as with pain, relief from fever with drugs adds to comfort of the patient.It also impresses the patient and the relatives favourably about the therapeutic capability of the doctor”
