Typhoid is an infection that is transmitted by bacteria called Salmonella typhi, that is the bacteria that usually affects our gastrointestinal tract in the first instance, causing diarrhoea and we loose our water from our body but also that means we will not have nutrition , that can affect many different systems of our body and if not treated can be dangerous for the health of our body.
There are many symptoms of the typhoid but all of them have high temperature, sometimes it goes up to 40C and that is even alone can be dangerous. Often when people have high temperature we start to have headache, sometimes that can also lead to seizures and be dangerous. Typical for typhoid is also stomach ache, that is also because of abdominal cramps tummy pain and diarrhoea.
Typhoid untreated can be spread through bloodstream and cause sepsis, the toxins of bacteria can lead to internal bleeding which is dangerous and also if the wall of a bowel is affected that may become fragile and cause perforation and that is lethal. The person without medical treatment will be not able to survive. It is a condition that is easy to prevent but it is hard to treat if one already has advance infection.
As the infection is transmitted from dirty food and water that means we have to be careful when drinking water when we are outside or on holidays, we need to make sure that we know that water is clean. As to food, when buying food make sure that you buy from places where they have good hygienic condition. When people being outside and touch objects as well as handles in public transport but also after using toilettes it is important to wash our hands. Nowadays we have vaccines against typhoid that is why if you know that you are travelling in the country with high risk of typhoid then you should consider vaccination.
I am inviting following users for contest: @rumanaafroz, @monz122, @uzma4882
