Typhoid fever, also known as enteric fever, is a bacterial infection caused by Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi. It spreads through contaminated food and water and is characterized by symptoms such as prolonged fever, abdominal pain, diarrhea or constipation, and a general feeling of malaise. If untreated, it can lead to serious complications, but it can be effectively managed with antibiotics and preventive measures like vaccination and improved sanitation.
