Hello
welcome to health care magic
thanks for your query
You are taking antibiotics for the treatment of typhoid fever...
The treatment may include painkiller,antipyretics also,,they cause gastric irritation so much..
Because of this gastritis you may feel pain in the abdomen,,heaviness in the stomach...
To avoid all these take proton pump inhibitors like pantocid..
it should be taken at least half an hour before breakfast in the morning...daily 1 tab..
with in 2/3 days you may feel free from symptoms
Hope you understand my suggestion
Thank you
