What about intestinal infections?

The intestinal infection is a fairly common condition, and once it is acquired, the tummy will suffer, but don’t worry, it will usually get better soon if you know what to do. And what happens when I tell you about intestinal infections in the case.

I. Identification of symptoms

First of all, we need to know what the symptoms of intestinal infections are. It is common for abdominal pain, diarrhoea and, possibly, nausea, vomiting and fever. For example, Li participated in an outdoor barbecue a few days ago, ate a lot of barbecues and drank some cold drinks. When he returned home that night, he began to feel the pain of his tummy position, and then kept running the toilet and diarrhea, which he did several times that night, and he threw up once, and in the morning a little bit of the heat. That’s typical intestinal infection.

Timely access to health care

When these symptoms occur, don’t delay, but go to the hospital. The doctor asks you in detail about your diet, your recent activities, etc., and there are tests to determine whether or not you have intestinal infections and why. Like Xiao Li at the hospital, he was examined for blood, shit, etc. after he had been asked about the day before. The examination revealed that Li had white cells in his feces and that blood routines showed high white cell counts, which suggests that he did have intestinal infections.

III. Determination of causes

There are many causes of intestinal infections, such as bacterial infections such as coli, salmonella, or viral infections such as rotaviruses, nonaviruses, or parasitic infections. The doctor will determine the cause of the disease in the light of the results and symptoms. In the case of Xiao Li, the doctor concluded, in conjunction with his symptoms and examinations, that he was likely to have eaten unclean food and contracted intestinal infections caused by bacteria.

IV. Targeted treatment

(i) General treatment. Whatever the cause, the first thing to do is to rest and give the body the energy to fight the infection. More water is also needed to supplement the water lost due to diarrhoea and vomiting to prevent dehydration. When Xiao Li returned home, as the doctor had said, he was resting in bed and drank warm water from time to time.

(ii) In the case of bacterial infections, doctors will prescribe some antibacterial drugs based on specific bacteria, such as Noflosat and Left Oxygen (note that these drugs are generally not suitable for young people under the age of 18, as they may affect bone development). If the virus is infected, there is currently no specific virus-specific drug, mainly recovered from the body ‘ s own immunity, and doctors may prescribe some of the drugs used to treat the disease, such as demoliosis to stop the laxis, and the fungs of the bacterium, to regulate the intestinal strain and to mitigate the discomfort caused by diarrhoea. If it’s a parasite infection, you’ll get the appropriate deworming. Little Li, because of bacterial infections, the doctor gave him the Nofluorinated Saturn and the demolite to stop the laxal. He took his medication in good faith, and the number of cases of diarrhoea slowly decreased.

V. Dietary adjustments

During intestinal infections, special attention is also paid to diet. Eating light, digestive foods, such as rice congee, noodles, buns and so on, and avoiding greasy, spicy and cold foods, can increase the intestine burden and discourage recovery. During her illness, Li only ate rice congee and soft noodles made by her mother, and the fried chickens and peppers that she normally eat were not touched.

VI. HEALTH CARE

In order to prevent re-infection or to transmit it to others, attention must be paid to hygiene. Hand-washing, especially after meals; food to be fresh and clean; and, in the case of viral infections, the timely disinfection of the objects used by the patient. When Xiao Li is well, she washes her hands carefully before eating and does not dare to eat any more food on the roadside.

So if you have intestinal infections, you can normally recover quickly if you have timely access to treatment, after determining the cause of the disease, with dietary adjustments and hygiene attention.
