General & Family Physician 's  Response
Headache, body pain, weakness, giddiness & joint pains are the post typhoid
symptoms of the illness. It is because of toxicity of salmonella typhae toxins.
These symptoms take almost 2-3 weeks to disappear with rest,anti- oxidants
after complete course of anti biotics. Diet should be soft, gradually semi- solids & later solids should be given.
