HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the febrile condition again with the history of typhoid fever then it may be re-occurrence of infection although it is very less likely condition, as long as the differential diagnosis is concern, it has to be taken into consideration because it may some other infection can go to hospital hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
