Hi,
It seems that you might be having some upper respiratory tract infection and does not seems having typhoid relapse.
As you had typhoid recently, Widal test for typhoid will not help to diagnose relapse.
Go for symptomatic treatment for cough and cold medicine.
Take light diet and avoid fried and junk food.
Ok and take care.
