Since she is already taking Ibugesic plus, which contains ibuprofen and paracetamol, please do not give her any other pain or fever relievers to avoid an accidental overdose. For her runny nose and body aches, simple and safe remedies are best. Encourage her to try steam inhalation and use saline nasal drops to ease congestion. Ensure she drinks plenty of warm fluids and gets plenty of rest. If her symptoms persist or worsen, please consult her doctor, especially since she is already taking Mahacef plus.

What medicines are used to treat typhoid fever?

Typhoid fever is treated with specific antibiotics such as azithromycin, cefixime, or ceftriaxone, depending on the severity and local resistance patterns. The exact medicine and duration should be decided by a doctor after proper evaluation. Along with antibiotics, rest, fluids, and light food are important for recovery.

I have been experiencing a mild fever for the past 45 days. Initially, I was diagnosed with malaria and typhoid and took medication for 12 days, after which my blood tests came back clear. However, the fever (100-101?F) continued. We consulted another doctor who advised a Widal test, which again showed positive for typhoid. After completing another 10 days of medication, I still have a persistent low-grade fever (99-100?F). We are confused about the cause and the next steps, as the fever is not resolving. What should we do now?

A mild fever lasting 45 days needs proper re-evaluation. The Widal test can remain positive for a long time even after typhoid has been treated, so it may not always mean active infection. Persistent low-grade fever can be due to incomplete treatment, another hidden infection, inflammation, tuberculosis, viral illness, or other medical causes. Consult a physician or infectious disease specialist for a detailed examination and further tests.

I have been experiencing typhoid fever every year for the past four consecutive years, usually between June and August. My symptoms include body pain, a temperature ranging from 98-99?F, anxiety, and a persistent feeling of internal fever. The Widal test often comes back positive, and I have taken allopathic treatment each time. Why does this keep recurring, and what should I do to prevent it?

Recurrent typhoid every year is uncommon, and the Widal test can remain positive for a long time even after a past infection, so it may not always mean active typhoid. A temperature of 98-99?F is usually normal or low-grade and may not indicate true fever. Your symptoms could be due to another cause, such as recurrent infection, stress/anxiety, or another underlying condition. It is best to consult a physician for proper evaluation.
