Can I drink coconut water if I have a fever? I'm currently dealing with fever 103 along with cough and sore throat?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can generally drink coconut water when you have a fever. It can help with hydration, especially if you are not eating or drinking much. However, coconut water does not treat the fever, cough, or sore throat. You should also drink plenty of plain water and other fluids. Since you have a 103°F fever along with cough and sore throat, it is important to contact a doctor for medical advice. Seek urgent care if you develop trouble breathing, chest pain, confusion, repeated vomiting, severe weakness, or difficulty swallowing fluids.
