It's normal for a person after having fever to have headache and body pains for some days
It is due to
1. Fever causes dehydration in the body ( evaroporates the water in the body due to heat of fever )
2. This causes body pains and headache and weakness
Just take plenty lo water with ors
Fast method to recover from weakness is to go to any hospital and get iv fluids ns with optineuron for 2 to 3 days
It will resolve immediately

Hi,
I understand your complaints.
Your blood reports are all right.
The ESR is not high when we factor in your age ( ESR needs to be adjusted for age and hemoglobin)
For a fever of less than 7 days, the WIDAL test you have done for typhoid is not useful. In India, most of consume food/water with an element of fecal contamination ( sadly) and we are all exposed to the typhoid bacteria.
All of us will mostly get a positive report.
Take paracetamol tablets for your fever as required. Don't take more than 2 grams of the tablet per day
Rest.
Keep your water intake at 3- 3.5 L/day ( unless you have a condition where you can't drink so much water)
You can consult if you want to discuss further
Next Steps
I would suggest you consult after this illness subsides or if it persists for more than a week- we need to understand why you fall sick often
Health Tips
take care.
don't worry
