Hello,
It is quite common after a bout of typhoid. Nothing much to worry and it will settle by itself. No definite treatment is required. If there is pain or fever, you can take paracetamol for symptomatic relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
