In my blood report S. typhi 1:80 is shown. I have been having fever for one week, which usually comes in the afternoon or evening and starts with chills. My doctor suggested me to take Emal injection for 3 days, and I have already taken one, but I am still concerned about my fever.

A Widal titer of 1:80 may suggest early or mild infection but is not always conclusive. The fever pattern fits typhoid but further testing is advised if fever persists despite treatment.

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a WIDAL TEST (TUBE METHOD) Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

My daughter has had typhoid twice. Her first Widal test showed O: 160, H: 80, and the second test showed O: 160, H: 160. The most recent test shows O: 80. Could you please advise if there are any complications for my child and suggest what steps or precautions we should take next?
