Widal report for typhoid seems normal (ratio of 1:160 or even is signifcant or better if repeat titres are suggesting increased level). best and gold standard test is blood culture to diagnose typhoid fever. IF fever is persisting for more than 2 weeks, it should be properly evaluated. there are lots of possibilties. you should consult your pediatrician and if need arise may need admission. if you want to know in more detail about typhoid fever in simple language. read on the below link. http://mayaclinic.in/patient-education/typhoid-fever-things-we-should-know/
