The Widal test done for typhoid is not an ideal test in the first week of illness. However a raised CRP and elevated TLC is suggestive of an infection in the body which needs to be treated with antibiotics. But these tests do not tell us the cause of the infection so few more tests will need to be done and medication will have to administered only under medical supervision
