Brief Answer:
A couple of things to point out

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. First of all, with any type of respiratory infection there will be some amount of dehydration due to the fluid loss. So the first thing to do is to make sure you are always well hydrated, and continue to remain that way for at least a week or two after the infection subsides.

So the coffee you took could/would have aggravated the dehydration if at all it was present. The next thing I would like to speak about is the z-pakc (antibiotics); the specific pack of antibiotics that you took will only help specific type of infections (usually upper respiratory tract infections), but can be effective for others as well. But only if you are susceptible to it, which is also important.

So, the important points we need to realise here are:

1. Was the z-pack effective for the type of infection you had?

2. Was the z-pack taken for the right duration of time?

3. Even if the infection was indeed treated, you could possibly just be suffering from dehydration so try staying well hydrated (at least 3 litres of water per day)

4. Avoid all edibles that can promote fluid loss from your body

5. If your symptoms do not subside in another 2-3 days, after you continue to stay well hydrated; then visit your doctor as your infection may have not been adequately treated

I hope I have explained things in a manner best understood by you. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I would be more than happy to help.

Best wishes.

Brief Answer:
Always here to help :)

Detailed Answer:
Hello once again sir.

I am glad to know that you did complete the z-pack as directed, but that still does not rule out the possibility of you being resistant to it.

There is no limit on water, but in medicine we say that if your urine has no colour, then you are well hydrated and need not consume more than you already are, or may be even cut back a little on your intake. Not because it is bad for you, but because you will unnecessarily have to visit the toilet several times to pass urine. But no, there is no limit of water intake. :)

Foods that will help with hydration:

+Watermelon
+Musk melon
+Cucumber
+Lettuce
+Celery
+Green peppers
+Tomatoes
+Radishes
+Star fruit
+Cauliflower
+Spinach
+Grapefruit
+Broccoli
+Baby carrots
+Strawberries
+Cantaloupe

Masturbation is not a problem, but I think once a day should suffice and not more.

You are always welcome, and please do not hesitate to write to me again. You can always just type out the question and mention my name in it so that it can be addressed to me and I shall be at your service.

Best wishes sir. :)
