Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello, Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic. I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that typhoid fever or infection caused by Salmonella typhi requires approx 15 days treatment. You can take all the foods but should not eat heavily, eat more in frequency and less in quantity. You can take non veg food it is good protein rich food, helps you heal faster. There is no possibility of hair loss.
I will be happy to answer all your future concern. Thank you, Dr Arun Tank Infectious disease specialist. Wish you a best health at health care magic.
