THANK FOR YOUR QUESTION.

I SUPPOSE YOU HAVE NO FEVER NOW.IF YOU DONT DO ALREADY THEN PLEASE DO A REPEAT BLOOD CULTURE/WIDAL TEST AND ROUTINE BLOOD COUNT TO CONFIRM THAT THERE IS NO TYPHOID FEVER NOW.AND IN TYPHOID FEVER OF THE SYMPTOM IS JOINT PAIN THAT CAN BE PRESENT TILL 6-8 WEEKS AFTER REMISSION OF FEVER.SO IF THE TEST REPORT IS NEGATIVE AND YOU HAVE NO FEVER THEN PLEASE DONT BE WORRY.TAKE A VITAMINE AND TRY TO START YOUR NORMAL LIFE.YOUR JOINT PAIN WILL BE SUBSIDED.
