Widal Test Overview
Typhoid fever is a serious infection contracted through contaminated food and water, which causes high fever, abdominal pain, nausea, and diarrhoea. The Widal test aids in the diagnosis of enteric fever also referred to as typhoid and paratyphoid fever.
The most common cause of enteric fever is eating or drinking water contaminated with the Salmonella bacteria. Once ingested, they have the potential to multiply and spread into the bloodstream. Even in cases where symptoms are mild, a Widal test serves as a quick and simple blood test that can help confirm or rule out typhoid fever.

Reasons to Take the Widal Test for Typhoid
If left untreated, typhoid fever can cause dangerous health problems. Your doctor may prescribe a Widal test in Mumbai if you present with any of the following symptoms:
High-grade fever with headaches and body aches
Abdominal pain, discomfort, pain, and tenderness
Red or rose spots appear on the body
Loss of appetite with difficulty performing daily activities
Mental symptoms such as delirium, agitation, and hallucinations (in cases of severe typhoid fever)
If you have already tested positive for typhoid or paratyphoid fever, your healthcare provider may recommend a confirmatory test every 2 weeks based on your symptoms and the clinical condition.
List of Parameters Considered During the Widal Blood Test
The Widal test is an essential test in the diagnosis of typhoid. It helps to determine the antibody titers against the enteric fever–causing bacteria. The purpose of the Widal test is to identify antibodies in a blood sample against the O and H antigens of the bacteria that causes enteric fever, Salmonella typhi. The results are reported as positive and negative. However, a positive result doesn’t necessarily mean an active infection. If the Widal test is positive and typhoid or paratyphoid fever is diagnosed, it is advisable to do the test again in the next two weeks based on your condition and symptoms.
