Shigellosis is an intestinal infection caused by bacteria of the Shigella genus, which are transmitted mainly through contaminated water or food and by contact with sick people. It affects the intestine and usually causes diarrhea.
Common symptoms:
- Diarrhea, sometimes with mucus or blood
- Abdominal pain and cramps
- Fever and general malaise
Why hydration matters: since fluids are lost with the diarrhea, maintaining adequate hydration is especially important, particularly in children.
Specialists who evaluate it: the gastroenterologist and the infectious disease specialist study this type of infection; in minors, the pediatric gastroenterologist takes part in their care, and the general practitioner can provide guidance at a first consultation. If the diarrhea is intense or persistent, it is advisable to seek professional evaluation.
