On Salmonella infections
Foods contaminated by Salmonella bacteria do not look, do not feel, nor the spoiled taste. Anyone can become sick of a salmonella infection. Infants, children, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems are more at risk of serious illness because their immune system is fragile, according to the CDC.
Anyone who has eaten one of the products recalled and developed symptoms of Salmonella infection should consult a doctor. Patients should inform their doctors of the possible exposure to salmonella bacteria, as special tests are necessary to diagnose salmonellosis. Salmonella infection symptoms can imitate other diseases, frequently leading to an erroneous diagnosis.
Symptoms of salmonella infection may include diarrhea, abdominal cramps and fever within 12 to 72 hours after eating contaminated foods. Otherwise, healthy adults are generally sick for four to seven days. In some cases, however, diarrhea can be so serious that patients need hospitalization.
Older adults, children, pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems, such as cancer patients, are more likely to develop serious disease and serious, sometimes fatal conditions.
Some people are infected without falling ill or obviously symptoms. However, they can still disseminate infections to others.
