it is not a bandage. it is a wash clothe wet with very cold water to bring down the fever. it has to be dipped in cold water and replaced back on the forehead often. fever is treated with Tylenol and cold water. it takes about a half hour for the Tylenol to bring the fever down. always follow the instructions on the Tylenol bottle. do not over dose. fever is a good thing. fever helps your body kill the germs that made you sick. but if a fever goes more than 24 hours, go to the doctors. small children and babies get high fevers easily. i used to have to put my children in the kitchen sink with cold water until they shivered. (yes, they cried!...so did I.) do not let a fever last long as it can hurt babies brains.
