Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Multi drug resistant salmonella infection is grwoing. I suggest you to do blood and stool culture and sensitivity. This will tell you probable sensitivity towards the organisms.

If this method is not followed than there is chance of recurrence of infection. So better option is to take treatment according to the reports.

Please take small and frequent diet, instead of full single diet. This will prevent perforation from the ulcer caused due to the typhoid fever.

High protein and carbohydrate diet should be taken. Avoid spicy and more bulky foods. Avoid constipation otherwise perforation may occur.

This infection transmits either from the foods or from the water. So keep the water and food hygiene maintained in the future so that infection never occurs.

Good handwashing practice is also important, this is the most effective barrier can stop the infection from soreading. So adopt this barrier.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
