Hi,
After starting specific antibiotic for typhoid, temperature becomes normal within a week time.
If still temperature is continued after two weeks, it require further evaluation of your case.
Consult your physician and get re examined for having other condition than typhoid.
Continue with light diet.
Ok and take care.
