Gastroenteritis and other gut infections
Gastroenteritis, often called “stomach flu,” is an inflammation of the stomach and intestines typically caused by viruses, bacteria, or parasites. While common, these infections can lead to severe dehydration and discomfort. Dr. Federica Fabris provides expert care to identify the specific pathogen and help you recover quickly and safely.
What are the common causes of gut infections?
Infections are usually triggered by contaminated food or water, or contact with an infected person, involving viruses like Norovirus or bacteria like E. coli.
How do we identify the specific infection?
Dr. Fabris uses precise diagnostic testing, including stool analysis and clinical evaluations, to determine the exact cause and the most effective treatment path.
What are the typical symptoms?
Most patients experience sudden onset of watery diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting, and sometimes a low-grade fever or muscle aches.
What does the recovery process look like?
Treatment focuses on rehydration, symptom management, and, in bacterial cases, targeted medication to clear the infection and restore healthy gut flora balance.
