Flu or typhoid ?
Hello, my daughter is 3 years old Few days ago she had fever (100- 101), cough and cold.  Doctor started medicines for flu. After 6 days , her fever was controlled but she used to complain of headache, neck stiffness and foot pain. Now, she complains only for pain in her feet. She had fever again one night ago and it was 100.5. It has been almost 10 days now.  Doctor advised for WIDAL test yesterday and she tested positive. Her blood culture and urine culture reports will come later. He has prescribed some medicines and has asked to repeat the WIDAL test after five days. Is typhoid a side effect of this flu?? Can typhoid show symptoms like flu? What diet should be given in typhoid?
