Post Typhoid gastric issue
I have completed my course of medicines and it's been a week, I still feel gastric after eating food. Sometimes it is too much that my stomach hurts and then either I sit in padmasan or walk for 15 mins and the gas goes off. Is it normal? How many days should u wait to start eating food from outside.

What you’re describing is quite common after a recent episode of typhoid.
Even after the bacteria is cleared, the intestinal lining and gastric motility remain sensitive for a few weeks. This can cause gas, bloating, and abdominal discomfort, especially after heavier or oily meals.
Next Steps
✅ Eat small, light, frequent meals.
✅ Stick to easily digestible food: khichdi, curd rice, dalia, boiled vegetables, fruits (banana, papaya).
✅ Probiotics (curd, buttermilk, or pharmacy-based probiotics) help restore gut bacteria.
✅ Avoid fried, oily, spicy, and junk foods for at least 2–3 more weeks.
✅ Drink enough water.
✅ Continue gentle walking after meals if it helps relieve gas.
When to restart outside food:
Ideally wait 3–4 weeks after recovery, and even then start gradually (soft, freshly prepared food — not street food or very spicy dishes).
Complete normalization may take up to 6 weeks in some people.
Get the following tests done: CBC, LFT, Stool microscopy, H. Pylori Ag test.
