Typhoid fever has a potential chance of gettibg chronic as there is possibility of carrier stage.
For typjoid you should take anti biotics for atleast 7_14 days. And for carrier stage you need to take 28 days antibiotics to clear the infection.
During the treatment take rest, drink fruit juices n liquid, hygeinic food, etc.
Take care of your self and about your personal hygeine as thphoid is highly contagious.
And consult your family physician if symptoms getting worse.
Get well soon...
