Can I Drink Coffee During Typhoid Treatment?

Hi Doctor, I'm a typhoid carrier and I got infected once again. My doctor told me to get some rest, gave some medications. I'm a habitual coffee drinker and I find coffee helps my digestion. While under treatment, can I drink coffee to help me with constipation?

Dear Friend.
Hi , I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
As far as your query is concerned, you can drink coffee. It won't cause problems as such in typhoid fever.
But i must tell you that Carrier state of typhoid is relatively rare.
In case you are being guided by your Widal Report, they have no significance.
I would advise you to take a second opinion.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any query you may please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
