Infections

Acute

What is Infections?

Infections can be caused by a wide range of pathogens, most prominently bacteria and viruses. Hosts can fight infections using their immune systems. Mammalian hosts react to infections with an innate response, often involving inflammation, followed by an adaptive response.

Symptoms

Stiff neck.
Nasal congestion.
Chills and sweats.
Shortness of breath.
Change in cough or a new cough.
Sore throat or new mouth sore.
Burning or pain with urination.
Fever (this is sometimes the only sign of an infection).

Complications

The infection can spread from one place in your body to the entire body through your bloodstream. Early diagnosis and treatment may prevent complications such as bacteremia, sepsis, and septic shock. These are serious, life-threatening conditions that need immediate treatment

Causes

Infectious diseases are illnesses caused by harmful agents (pathogens) that get into your body. The most common causes are viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites. Infectious diseases usually spread from person to person, through contaminated food or water and through bug bites.

Risk factors

Neutropenia.
Mucositis.
Medications such as steroids can make your immune system weaker and increase your risk of infection.
Certain types of cancers, such as those that affect the bone marrow or those that can spread to the bone, may increase the risk of an infection.

Prevention

Wash your hands well. You probably wash your hands after using the bathroom, before preparing or eating food, and after gardening or other dirty tasks. You should also wash up after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing; feeding or stroking your pet; or visiting or caring for a sick person

How is it diagnosed?

Serious bacterial infections can be effectively treated with antibiotics. These medicines either kill the bacteria or stop them multiplying. This helps your body's immune system fight the bacteria. Your doctor's choice of antibiotic will depend on the bacteria that is causing your infection.

During the pelvic exam, your health care provider might use an instrument (speculum) to look inside your vagina for inflammation and discharge. Collect a sample for lab testing.
