I'm dealing with typhoid right now and was wondering if it's okay to masturbate. Is it harmless or should I avoid it while I'm sick?

It's generally safe to masturbate during typhoid if you're feeling well enough and it doesn't cause discomfort. However, typhoid can cause fatigue and weakness, so prioritize rest and hydration to aid recovery. If unsure, consult your doctor for personalized advice.

I've been experiencing a mild fever every evening for the past week, usually staying under 100, mostly around 99. But then it seems to return to normal by the next morning. I've also had occasional headaches, though my stomach feels okay. I had a CBC and urine ESR done, and everything came back fine. What could possibly be causing this?

Sounds like you may be experiencing a low-grade fever in the evenings, along with occasional headaches. Since your CBC, urine, and ESR tests are normal, it is less likely to be due to an infection. One possible reason for your symptoms could be a viral infection. I recommend taking Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every evening when you have a fever. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
