Pediatrician 's  Response
thank you for your question. well generally because of such metabolic catastrophe body reacts in such a way. not everyone loses hair after typhoid. also if somebody does its bacause of temporary catagenic phase. give good protein containing food and rest in recovery period and hairfall decreases.
so do not worry and do not remove her existing hair.
