1 Blood clots can also obstruct veins, causing pain. 2  Veins return blood from the legs to the heart. 3  There are two systems of veins in the leg: superficial and deep. 4  If a blood clot occurs in a deep vein (deep venous thrombosis), it causes a damming effect, and blood is trapped behind the blockage.
Typhoid fever, also known simply as typhoid, is a symptomatic bacterial infection due to Salmonella typhi. Symptoms may vary from mild to severe and usually begin six to thirty days after exposure.
Background. Typhoid fever, also known as enteric fever, is a potentially fatal multisystemic illness caused primarily by Salmonella enterica, subspecies enterica serovar typhi and, to a lesser extent, related serovars paratyphi A, B, and C. The protean manifestations of typhoid fever make this disease a true diagnostic challenge.
