I'm dealing with a viral fever and I'm already on medication. I'm wondering if it's okay to drink milk or if I should avoid it for now. Is milk a good idea when I'm sick?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, you can drink milk during a fever; it provides nutrition and energy. However, if it upsets your stomach or increases mucus, opt for lighter alternatives like soups or warm water. Always stay hydrated and rest well.

I'm really worried because I've been feeling pretty awful this week with a fever and body aches that are making it hard for me to even walk. I've been taking Paracetamol but it's not helping much, and now I've got a runny nose too. What could be going on and should I be doing something different to feel better?
