I was diagnosed with typhoid fever 10 days ago. I am taking antibiotics for it and multivitamins as prescribed by doctor. I don't have any fever now, but I have severe joint pain. My knees, elbows, back and shoulders are paining a lot. Its been happening from last 4-5 days. Are these symptoms of typhoid? Or should I get checked for something else? Please advise 🙏
