Hello,
In typhoid, it’s common to have joint pains. No need to worry about it. Take rest, adequate fluids. Take paracetamol 650mg sos Still it is there, then you can take tab diclofenac 50mg sos. Take Pantoprazole also
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
