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've been dealing with this fever for over a week and already consulted a doctor. They had me do a Widal test, and the results were at S. Thphi O 1160, S. Thphi H 1160, S. Para thphi AH 180, and S. Para thphi BH 180, with the malaria parasite being negative. After the consultation, I was prescribed Taxim 200, Paracetamol 650, Femotodine 40, and Pan 40 to take for seven days. Now that I've completed the course, I'm still experiencing full body aches, a burning sensation in my stomach, a low-grade fever, and symptoms of dehydration and anxiety. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next. Should I take the medication again or consult the doctor another time? My diet mainly includes rice with buttermilk, fruits, and milk. What would you suggest?

I've been dealing with a cold, runny nose, and a slight fever since this morning. Now I've lost my sense of smell and taste. Should I be worried? Does this sound like COVID or just a regular flu? And how long might it take for my taste and smell to come back? Would love some advice.
Losing smell and taste, combined with cold, runny nose, and slight fever, could be indicative of COVID-19, but it's also possible with other viral infections like the common flu; to determine the cause, consider getting a COVID-19 test, rest, stay hydrated, and use over-the-counter medications to alleviate symptoms; your sense of smell and taste should return once the infection resolves, usually within 7-14 days.

I'm really worried because my wife just tested positive for Covid-19. I'd like to know more about getting an online video consultation with doctors on Practo. Could you explain the packages and other details? Also, I noticed that when I try to select a Package for Corona Virus, it shows doctors listed under General Physician. Could you help clarify this for me as soon as you can?
