Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Typhoid fever even if it is caused by bacteria will show the usual prodromal symtpoms associated with fever.
It includes headache, nausea, body pain, loss of appetite and so on.
Headacheis a part of those symptoms.
It will take its time to go away. As you are already being treated for typhoid these associated symptoms will also go away with it.
Try to keep yourself well hydrated with lots of fluids and water.
Eat painkillers like ibuprofen if you start getting severe headaches.
It will go away with the infection. Do not be worried.
I hope i have answered your query well.
if you have any more query kindly write back to me will be happy to answer them.
Thank you
