Got Fever After Drinking Alcohol. What Is This? Is It A Detox?
I know alcohol is bad. I unsed to drink regularly but cut back immencely. Now I drink maybe 1 to 2 nights a month. But lately, I have been getting a fever the day after ir can sometimes last for two days. I never had fevers before. What is this? Is it a detox because my body is just not used to drinking?

Drinking once or twice a month is very normal, its healthy though. It only depends on what kind of liqour you are having. Drinking 60ml scotch once in a while is perfectly normal. It actually boosts your immunity. If it makes you feel sick the next day then try multi-vitamins, they help a lot.
