Thanks a lot @JoshMein, @Bergi, @Rocket for your time & suggestions. It helped me a lot. I also tried in diff way as follow. 

function changeToText() {
  var obj = document.getElementById('disease1CurrentObject');
  document.getElementById('divDisease1Current').removeChild(document.getElementById(obj));
  var element = document.createElement('input');
  element.setAttribute('type', 'text');
  element.setAttribute('value', 'myVal');
  element.setAttribute('id', 'myId');
  document.getElementById('divDisease1Current').appendChild(element); 
}
function changeToSelect() {
  var obj = document.getElementById('disease1CurrentObject');
  document.getElementById('divDisease1Current').removeChild(obj));
  var element = document.createElement('select');
  element.setAttribute('type', 'text');
  element.setAttribute('value', 'myVal');
  element.setAttribute('id', 'myId');
  document.getElementById('divDisease1Current').appendChild(element);
}

& 1 more, setAttribute() is not supported by IE version less than 8 or 8.
