My son suffers from major depression and OCD my daughter suffers from depression and is an addict in recovery of pain killers. They both have salmonella typhi what are the causes, treatment and how long is the recovery. My sihn has a few streaks of blood in his stool
Salmonella typhi is a bacteria and it can lead to typhoid. In that case, they need antibiotic treatment. Better to consult a physician for proper treatment. In few days, they would improve. Blood in stool may be due to gastric infection. Nothing to worry about that. With antibiotic, that would improve. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
