My dad was admitted about a week ago. His white blood cell count was 16,800, but it's normal now. However, the Widal test came back positive at 1:160. He's on treatment with Pipzo 4.5g injections, Pantop, Ns 500ml, Nurostar injections, and taking Calpol 650 and Cefuroxime 500 twice a day. Is this the right approach? I'm a bit worried and could use some guidance.

I'm wondering if paracetamol is just for treating fevers, or can it help with colds as well? Are there other benefits to taking it? Would love to get some guidance on this.
Paracetamol (also known as acetaminophen) is a versatile medication that not only helps reduce fever but also relieves headache, toothache, muscle aches, and menstrual cramps, while also alleviating cold and flu symptoms, making it a commonly used over-the-counter medication for various pain and discomfort conditions.
