Brief Answer:
Need not worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the reports

The typhoid titres are not too high. This may not result in a recurrence. The chances of the sickness you have now being Typhoid recurrence are less.

The symptoms could be post-infection malaise.
This does not need any medication, hydrate yourself well and take rest. This will be self limiting causing no complications.

ok thanks sir. can typhoid happen twice?

Answered by Dr. Dr.Raju.A.T (14 hours later)

Brief Answer:
Not likely

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

No, the recurrence with that short gap is not possible.

A person can get typhoid multiple times in life but not this close.

There are possibilities for the infection for not getting treated completely.
