View allI'm a bit worried because I had sex with my wife before realizing she has typhoid. Is there any chance I could catch it too? What steps should I take now?
There is a risk of transmission of typhoid through sexual contact, especially if proper hygiene measures are not followed. It is important for both you and your wife to get tested for typhoid. If the test results are positive, treatment with antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Azithromycin may be necessary. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, such as washing hands regularly and avoiding sharing personal items, can help prevent the spread of the infection.

I'm based in Pune and have been dealing with Tubercular Lymphadenopathy for the last 9 months, but I can still feel swollen nodes on the left side of my neck. I'm worried because even after all this treatment, the size hasn't gone down. Could you recommend a well-experienced specialist in Pune who can help me with this?
Ideally the swelling also should come down,as it is still persisting, visit Physician for follow up and appropriate treatment.
