Can I drink coconut water when I have a cold? If it's okay, how much should I be having each day to be good for my body?

-Yes, you can drink coconut water during a cold as it helps keep you hydrated and provides electrolytes. Aim for 1-2 cups per day, but listen to your body and adjust based on how you're feeling.

View allI'm dealing with a viral fever, and while paracetamol is helping a bit with the fever, it only reduces the temperature for a short time. I'm wondering if there are any antibiotics I can take that might help more effectively. Any advice would be appreciated!

I've been bitten by a rat, and I bled for a moment. The doctor gave me an anti-tetanus and a Rabipur injection. He also mentioned I need to take two more Rabipur injections with a 2-day gap in between. I'm wondering, is it really necessary to get those additional shots?
Yes you have to risk complete post exposure regimen of rabies vaccine and follow your doctors advice

I'm feeling a bit of warmth in my back and sometimes it feels like I have a fever when I touch my neck, but I don't actually feel feverish inside. The heat in my back is noticeable, and I'm struggling to explain it properly. Can you help me understand what might be causing this?
You may be experiencing symptoms of a mild fever. The warmth in your back could be a sign of increased body temperature. I recommend taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed to help reduce the fever and discomfort. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
