How to Fake a Fever
Faking a fever can be a useful tactic in getting out of school, work, or other obligations. Here are some tips to help make your deception as believable as possible.
Instructions
- Dress warmly. A feverish person is often cold despite a high body temperature. Wearing sweaters, socks, and hats can help create the illusion that you have a fever.
- Pale your skin. Walk around in natural lighting to make your skin look pale and healthy. If you need to, use a white foundation to cover up any blemishes.
- Take ibuprofen 10 minutes before you need to "fake sick". Taking ibuprofen can reduce some of your body temperature, making it look like you have a fever.
- Tell someone you don't feel well. To be convincing, you should tell someone you're not feeling well and that you think you might have a fever.
- Act tired and complain of an upset stomach. Fevers often make people feel exhausted and nauseous. Complain of an upset stomach and/or feeling very tired.
- Take your temperature. Fake a high temperature by placing the thermometer under a lamp or near a warm object for a few minutes.
- Take advantage of your deception. Use your newly found freedom wisely.
