Hello Doctor,
I recently recovered from typhoid fever, but I still feel a bit weak and want to ensure my immune system gets stronger. Are there any specific steps or lifestyle changes I should follow to boost my immune system during this recovery phase?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
1. Typhoid fever spreads through contaminated food or water, so practicing proper hand hygiene is essential, especially before eating or after using the restroom. Be cautious with raw fruits and vegetables.
2. While a typhoid vaccine can help prevent severe infections, it’s most effective for those who haven't had typhoid before and doesn't guarantee complete immunity.
3. It's important to follow a licensed physician's prescription for treatment to avoid complications like antibiotic resistance and relapses. Always complete your medication course as directed.
Thanks
