Anything cold is normally great for a fever. It helps bring down your temperature. But ice cream is full of fat and unhealthy calories. I recommend switching to cold yogurt or popsicles or something that is not quite as heavy of a substance so that you can still get your sweet fix and benefit your sore throat.

If you have a cold, I would avoid ice cream. If your sore throat has come about because of other reasons, the cold (of the ice cream) might numb it somewhat, in which case I would say -- go for it.

you actually probably want to drink hot tea or just water... the sugar in the ice cream can actually make sore throats worse.
