Bacterial dysentery

Bacterial dysentery is referred to as bacillary dysentery; it is an intestinal infectious disease caused by Shigella (dysentery bacillus). There are clinical manifestations of systemic poisoning symptoms, abdominal pain, diarrhea, severe after anxiety, and discharge of pus and blood. Toxic bacillary dysentery has sudden onset, sudden high fever, recurrent seizures, lethargy, coma, rapid occurrence of circulatory failure and respiratory failure, and mild or absent intestinal symptoms, and the disease is dangerous. The disease is treated with effective antibacterial drugs and has a high cure rate. Poor efficacy or chronic increase are due to non-formal treatment, untimely treatment, improper use of drugs or infection with resistant strains. It can occur throughout the year, but it is more common in summer and autumn. The incidence of children is generally higher, followed by young adults aged 20 to 39, and fewer elderly patients.
