  5. I have been experiencing typhoid fever every year for the past four consecutive years, usually between June and August. My symptoms include body pain, a temperature ranging from 98-99?F, anxiety, and a persistent feeling of internal fever. The Widal test often comes back positive, and I have taken allopathic treatment each time. Why does this keep recurring, and what should I do to prevent it?

Recurrent typhoid every year is uncommon, and the Widal test can remain positive for a long time even after a past infection, so it may not always mean active typhoid. A temperature of 98-99?F is usually normal or low-grade and may not indicate true fever. Your symptoms could be due to another cause, such as recurrent infection, stress/anxiety, or another underlying condition. It is best to consult a physician for proper evaluation.
