High Fever
Those with typhoid may start off with a mild fever, which progresses to high fever within days. The fever is a result of the body trying to fight off infection and may also indicate complications caused by typhoid.
Once the fever reaches around 104 degrees, it often persists until medical management takes place. Fever is one of the early signs of typhoid fever, and for those traveling abroad, it's an indication to seek medical help.1‘Symptoms and Treatment.’ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 13 Nov. 2019, www.cdc.gov/typhoid-fever/symptoms.html
