During fever, you may eat either rice or rotiâchoose light, easily digestible food as tolerated. Small frequent meals are fine, and keep yourself well hydrated.
Next Steps
Check your temperature and continue only the prescribed medicine. If fever persists beyond 48â72 hours, becomes high, or you develop breathing difficulty, confusion, rash, or severe weakness, consult a doctor. You may book a Practo consult with me if needed.

Eat as you like no matter.
I will advise you to take a high protein diet as high temperature causes denaturation of protein.

Either rice or roti is fine during a fever. What matters more is eating small, easy meals and drinking enough fluids.
Next Steps
Rest and keep sipping water or ORS through the day. Recheck your temperature every few hours.
Health Tips
See a doctor if the fever crosses three days, goes very high, or comes with chills or breathlessness.
