Dear lybrate-user, thanks for reaching out since your son's typhidot igm is positive you must get a professional opinion by physical / video consultation with me or any paediatrician at earliest and start antibiotics at recommend dosage and time.
This is because if not treated properly now, he may develop severe complications in adulthood like ulcers in intestinal walls, obstruction of food passage, etc.
Please don't take any such risk.
Take care.

She might be suffering from neuropathy which is causing her urinary incontinence. Her neuropathy could have been resulted due to poor blood sugar control, varicella infection in the past, b12 deficiency due to medicines, etc. Needs to rule out the cause of her problem and her treatment will be based on that.

It is not dangerous to take vaccine after an interval of atleast 4 weeks from previous course.
Usually you will get minor side effects like redness, pain at site and fever and myalgia only which resolves in 2 -3 days
do contact me for further diagnosis and treatment or if you still have some doubts you want to clear.

Watch for for fluid filled vescules and rash
in chicken pox usually rash appears on third day of fever.
If they do immediately contact me or any medico for treatment. It is chickenpox
vaccination doesn't guarantee protection.
It only enhance immunity and reduce chances of infection and even more reduce chances of severe disease.
So even if you get infected you will only develop mild disease.
Take tab limcee od
it enhances immunity.
