Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

I have read the query and understand the problem.
Sweaty palms with fever should be evaluated further.As you said you had been treated with typhoid,so you should go for widal test for follow-up testing and check the which titer is showing.

Other tests also be done like routine blood counts,thyroid function tests and urine examination to detect any infective the underlying cause.

However,most excess sweating is due to excess sweat glands or their hyper stimulation.

That causes can be skin infection (bacterial or fungal) lead to replicate themselves and create bad odour,some times genetic or bad hygiene.

Here are some tips to stop this sweating.

Always take balanced diet and drink plenty of water daily.
Avoid tight fitting clothes rather wear loose clothes.
Wear cotton material clothes and avoid synthetic silk.
Bath with antibacterial soap like dettol,savlon
Use antiperspirants and deodarants together like aluminium chlorhydrate or zirconium,one will block perspiration and other will mask the smell.

You may see some improvement in 1 or 2 weeks but if not then i will advise you to see some nearby physician who may order some tests as i suggested and can diagnose your problem.

Regards,
