Hi,

Now a days with proper antibiotics, the fever and other symptoms go in 1-2 days. But the basic intestinal lesion takes about 8 to 10 days for complete healing. One should observe good nutrition along with light and easily digestible diet/take complete rest along with medication. The intestine was ulcerated and weak due to typhoid fever. It ideally needs a week for for complete fitness. One has to avoid excessive physical stress, continue with light nutritive diet, avoid heavy and spicy diet. Probiotics to replace intestinal flora are advisable these days. After this, one can join routine gradually.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
