Hello,

The likely cause of fever is that either the diagnosis of typhoid fever was wrong and it is some other fever illness, or typhoid fever has not been treated adequately. Please discuss these issues with your doctor. Child may require further tests and then treatment.

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

Regards,
Dr. Loveleen Sharma, General & Family Physician
