What are the symptoms of infectious diseases?

The so-called infectious diseases are also called contagious diseases. Now you all know what infectious diseases mean. Infectious diseases are generally caused by patients during treatment because their physical fitness and resistance are relatively poor, so they are infected with other diseases. Infectious diseases are generally transmitted through the digestive tract or by other means, so we must be especially careful to prevent them in our daily lives.

Common symptoms of infectious diseases include:

1. Central nervous system infection

Such as purulent meningitis, meningoencephalitis, etc.; respiratory system infections such as bronchopneumonia, ventilator-associated pneumonia, lobar pneumonia, etc.;

2. Cardiovascular system infection

It is mainly infective endocarditis; digestive system infections mainly include suppurative cholangitis, necrotizing pancreatitis, diffuse peritonitis, acute gastroenteritis combined with shock; blood system and systemic infections such as sepsis, septic shock; soft tissue infection or multiple abscesses (brain, lung, liver, chest, abdomen, etc.) complicated by organ failure, failure or microcirculation disorder; and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) caused by pathogenic microorganisms is generally not life-threatening before the occurrence of multiple organ failure (MODS).

Prevention methods for infectious diseases:

1. Digestive tract infectious diseases:

Pay attention to hygiene, wash hands before meals and after defecation, wash hands before picking up, hugging, and feeding children, and refuse relatives and friends to kiss children during epidemic seasons;

2. Respiratory infectious diseases:

Ventilate and disinfect indoor spaces, avoid or avoid crowded places, and try to avoid close contact with infected people;

3. Blood and sexually transmitted infectious diseases:

Have protective sex, avoid fluid exchange, do not transfuse blood when it is not necessary, and do not transfuse blood components;

4. Zoonotic infectious diseases:

Avoid contact with sick animals, their secretions, blood and skins. Disinfect properly before and after contact, and do not eat meat from unknown dead animals. 4. All viral infectious diseases: hang underwear and bedding to dry, and get vaccinated and/or immunoglobulin.

Dietary considerations

1. Avoid smoking and drinking, and be careful with spicy and irritating foods to avoid excessive coughing

2. Drink as much water as possible and eat easily digestible or semi-liquid food to help eliminate phlegm and expel phlegm in time.
