A 101.0 degree fever isn't serious. It is the body's way of destroying a virus by making the body a more hostile place for the virus to be. It isn't serious for children to have a fever of 101 either. You can let your body burn it out, or you can take medication to reduce the fever if you're miserable because of it. If medication isn't available and you need to cool down so you can rest, use cool washcloths on your face, under your arms and on your chest and neck.

If you've been sick for a while though, a fever could mean you have a bacterial infection (for example, a sinus infection or bronchitis after having a cold). Other symptoms can tell you if you have a bacterial infection like sinusitis or bronchitis. Consider seeing a doctor for this.
