I'm dealing with a fever for the past couple of days. It's pretty high, and I've also got body pain and a headache. I've been taking paracetamol and some homeopathic remedies. Do you think this could be viral, or is there something else going on?

I just found out that the Albendazole 400mg tablets I've been taking are supposed to be chewed, but I've been swallowing them whole. I'm on a 3-day treatment and have already done 2 daysdo you think swallowing them instead of chewing will affect how well they work? The doctor didn't mention this, but I read it on the back of the package.

I'm recovering from typhoid and noticed my body temperature goes up to 99.1F. Is this still considered a fever, or is it within the normal range? Also, I'm wondering if it's safe for me to be in an air-conditioned room at work. Can I resume going to the office, or should I take more precautions?

Normal,nothing to worry ok.
