Mild dehydration is common and is usually easily reversed by drinking lots of fluids. Severe dehydration can be fatal unless quickly treated because the organs of your body need a certain amount of fluid to function. For more information about dehydration symptoms in children and adults see our separate leaflet called Dehydration. Many people will recognise food poisoning from their typical symptoms and, if these symptoms are mild, they do not usually need to seek medical advice or receive specific medical treatment.
So, you may have salmonella infection that is not 'confirmed'. However, in some circumstances, you may need to seek medical advice when you have food poisoning see below about when to seek medical advice. The doctor or nurse may ask you questions about recent travel abroad or any ways that you may have eaten or drunk contaminated food or water. They will also usually check you for signs of lack of fluid in the body dehydration.
They may check your temperature, pulse and blood pressure. They may also examine your tummy abdomen to look for any tenderness. The doctor or nurse may ask you to collect a stool faeces sample. The sample of your stool is sent to the laboratory for testing. Salmonella is confirmed if the germ bacteria is found in your stool sample. Food is sometimes tested for salmonella in outbreaks. A stool sample is not always needed. Your doctor is likely to suggest one in certain situations, such as:.
The reason a stool sample is not always needed is that in many cases knowing what germ you have does not make any difference to the treatment you need. Most cases of salmonella get better on their own even before the stool test result is back. If your child has gastroenteritis from any cause including possible food poisoning caused by salmonella , you should seek medical advice in the following situations:.
If you have gastroenteritis from any cause including possible food poisoning caused by salmonella , you should seek medical advice in any of the following situations:. Most children with salmonella do not need any specific treatment.
The symptoms usually improve in a few days as their immune system has time to clear the infection. Children with salmonella can usually be cared for at home. Occasionally, admission to hospital is needed if symptoms are severe, or if complications develop. You should encourage your child to take plenty of fluids.
The aim is to prevent lack of fluid in the body dehydration. However, if your child is not dehydrated most cases or once any dehydration has been corrected, encourage your child to have their normal diet. For information about what to give children with salmonella to eat and drink, see our separate leaflet called Acute Diarrhoea in Children. You should not give medicines to stop diarrhoea to children under 12 years old.
They sound attractive remedies but are unsafe to give to children, due to possible serious complications. However, you can give paracetamol or ibuprofen to ease a high temperature fever or headache.
If symptoms are severe or persist for several days or more, a doctor may ask for a sample of the diarrhoea. This is sent to the laboratory to look for infecting germs bacteria, parasites, etc including salmonella. If salmonella is found in the sample, antibiotics are not usually required. However a very short course of an antibiotic may be needed if:. Probiotics are generally not recommended for children with gastroenteritis or food poisoning from any cause.
This may change if further research shows that they are helpful. Antisecretory medicines are a newer group of treatments. They are designed to be used with rehydration treatment. They reduce the amount of water that is released into the gut during an episode of diarrhoea. They can be used for children who are older than 3 months of age. Racecadotril is the only antisecretory medicine available in the UK at the moment and is only available on prescription.

Salmonella in Domestic Animals, Wray C. Only a few cases have been reported from India, 3 and ours is the first case reported from Jammu and Kashmir State. A 25 year old man was admitted with a history of high grade fever, palpitations, and generalised aches of one week duration.
There was no history of cough, expectoration, dysuria, bleeding, or alteration of higher mental functions. No past history requiring prolonged medication or hospitalisation was present. On cardiovascular examination, there was evidence of early diastolic murmur, which was more prominent in the aortic area, and no other murmur or added sound was heard.
There were some peripheral signs of aortic regurgitation. No other abnormalities were noted on systemic examination. Serial cultures of blood and urine revealed the presence of Salmonella typhi sensitive to ofloxacin, ceftriaxone, amikacin, and sparfloxacin, but resistant to amoxicillin, norfloxacin, cefalexin, and cefixime.
The sensitivity was assessed by the Kirby-Bauer method using Mueller-Hinton agar. Echocardiography revealed the presence of bicuspid aortic valves and vegetations attached to both the cusps dangling in the left ventricular outflow tract during diastole. He showed full clinical recovery during this period and was discharged on penicillin prophylaxis for rheumatic fever.
The patient was advised prophylaxis for endocarditis in special circumstances, such as dental extraction and surgical procedures, and he made a good recovery.
Currently, he is apparently healthy and attends follow up clinic regularly. Infective endocarditis usually occurs in the setting of an existing valvular abnormality and Salmonella typhi as the cause of endocarditis is very rare, accounting for 1. However, such complications, which are associated with a bad prognosis, were not seen in our patient.
Salmonella serotypes commonly known to cause endocarditis include S choleraesuis , S typhimurium , and S enteritidis , and infrequently the S thompson and S derby serotypes. Hewage and colleagues 9 reported the first case from Sri Lanka, and Du Plessis et al reported a case of right sided endocarditis with tricuspid regurgitation.
