Endemic Typhus
Endemic typhus is an infectious disease caused by bacteria that are transmitted to humans through fleas associated with rodents and other animals in certain regions.
Frequent symptoms: It usually involves fever, headache, general malaise, muscle aches, and, at times, skin rashes.
How it is transmitted: It is linked to exposure to fleas present in environments where rodents live, so the hygiene conditions of the surroundings influence its appearance.
Whom to see? The infectious disease specialist is the specialist who studies and follows up on this type of infection. With prolonged fever accompanied by rashes or after possible exposure to rodents, seeking medical guidance for a proper evaluation is advisable.
