What Are GIT Infections?
GIT infections happen when bacteria, viruses, or parasites affect your stomach and intestines. The common symptoms are:
- Diarrhea
- Vomiting
- Stomach cramps
- Nausea
- Fever
- Dehydration
If left untreated, these infections can lead to serious health problems, especially for young children, elderly people, and those with weak immune systems. That’s why it’s important to see a doctor early.
Common GIT Infections We Treat
There are several types of GIT infections. The most common ones we treat include:
1. Rotavirus Infection
Rotavirus is a virus that often affects children. It can cause gastroenteritis, which means inflammation of the stomach and intestines. Symptoms include:
- Severe diarrhea
- Vomiting
- Fever
- Stomach cramps
If left untreated, rotavirus can cause dehydration. We treat it with hydration therapy to replace lost fluids and prevent complications.
2. H. Pylori Infection
H. pylori is a type of bacteria that can infect the stomach. It is linked to conditions like gastritis and peptic ulcers. Symptoms include:
- Stomach pain after eating
- Indigestion
- Nausea and vomiting
- Bloating
- Loss of appetite
If left untreated, H. pylori can cause long-term damage. We diagnose it using blood, stool, and breath tests. Then, we treat it with antibiotics and medications to reduce stomach acid.
3. Other Gastrointestinal Infections
Besides Rotavirus and H. pylori, we also treat other infections like:
- Bacterial infections (e.g., Salmonella, E. coli)
- Viral infections (e.g., Norovirus)
- Parasitic infections (e.g., Giardia)
These infections can cause symptoms like diarrhea, vomiting, and stomach pain. We use tests to find out what is causing the infection and treat it properly.
Treatment for GIT Infections
At Emerald Avenue Medical Clinic, we offer different treatments to help you recover, depending on your infection. These include:
1. Hydration Therapy
If you are losing fluids from diarrhea or vomiting, we provide hydration therapy to replace them. This helps prevent dehydration, especially with Rotavirus.
2. Antibiotics
For H. pylori and other bacterial infections, we use antibiotics. These help kill the bacteria and stop the infection from getting worse.
3. Probiotics
After taking antibiotics, we may suggest probiotics. These help restore healthy bacteria in your gut and support recovery.
4. Antacids and Acid Reducers
To help heal your stomach lining, we give you antacids and acid reducers. These also reduce the pain caused by H. pylori.
5. Antiemetic and Antidiarrheal Medications
We offer antiemetic and antidiarrheal medications to reduce nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. These help you feel better faster.
6. Nutritional Support
We provide advice on what to eat and drink to stay hydrated and get the nutrients you need to recover.
Comprehensive Diagnostic Services
To treat you well, we need to know the exact cause of your infection. We use the latest tools, including:
- Blood Tests: To check for H. pylori and other bacteria.
- Stool Tests: To find out if a virus or parasite is causing your infection.
- Breath Tests: A simple way to check for H. pylori.
- Ultrasound or Endoscopy: To look inside your stomach if necessary.
Once we know the cause, we will make a treatment plan that’s right for you.
