I just found out my Widal test came back positive yesterday. I'm really concerned and was wondering if there are any specific diet precautions I should be taking for typhoid. What should I avoid eating or include in my meals to help with recovery?

View allI accidentally took three allercet 5 mg tablets today instead of just one, having them in the morning, afternoon, and night. Are there any side effects I should be worried about because of this?
Taking 3 Allercet 5 mg tablets in a day instead of the prescribed 1 tablet is generally unlikely to cause severe side effects. However, it may lead to symptoms like drowsiness, dry mouth, or dizziness. If you experience any unusual or severe symptoms, it's best to consult a healthcare professional for further advice.

I'm experiencing some pain under my left underarm, and it's really uncomfortable, especially when I sneeze or cough. I'm getting a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could it be something serious, or is it maybe just a muscle strain? What should I do?

I've been dealing with a cold and body ache for about a week now. When I got some blood tests done, they showed I have both Typhoid and Malaria. It's been tough, and I've been taking medication for the past three days, but I'm still not feeling much better. Another thing that's bothering me is this really dark yellow urine I've noticed since yesterday. Could this be because of the medicines I'm taking? Is this something I should be worried about?
