Yeah… My wife does the “bowl of onions” thing when the kids have a flu/cold with congestion. It does help with that part so they can breathe a little easier. It also makes the room stink for up to a week, and I seriously doubt it does anything for temperature unless cleared sinuses somehow also help bring that down.
You can also accomplish similar with a humidifier and some vaporub etc. I prefer the vaporub personally
Onions are antibacterial and solve cough mucus, it’s not like it’s completely made up that they’re a natural remedy
… but they don’t help with fever, so I’d go even further than you and say the temperature simply dropped because time passed.
Ah so next time I have a cough, eat shit loads of onion?
But yeah haha, time is the likely answer.

A friend mixes onions (cut into pieces obviously), ginger and honey and eats that. Doesn’t make the room stink, maybe propose that?
…personally I’m a fan of hot tea with honey.
