Acute Gastroenteritis Explained
Acute gastroenteritis is a brief bout of irritation and swelling in the stomach and bowel, most frequently triggered by a virus, bacterium or parasite. It is commonly called a stomach bug, traveller’s diarrhoea or food poisoning, and most cases settle within a few days.
Common Triggers
Most infections come from something eaten or drunk: contaminated water, undercooked meat or seafood, unwashed salad or ice. You can also catch it from a sick travel companion. Heat speeds up bacterial growth, which explains why summer trips so often end with a tummy bug.
Getting Acute Gastroenteritis Treated in Fethiye
The physician asks about your meals and recent travel, checks for signs of dehydration, gives clear advice on fluids and food and, where appropriate, prescribes treatment. You then collect the e-prescription medicine from the nearest pharmacy. Typical choices are oral rehydration solutions, anti-sickness medicine and pain relief; antibiotics only for specific causes.
- Add plain foods such as rice, bananas, toast or soup as appetite returns
- Sip oral rehydration solution (sachets from any pharmacy) little and frequently
- Rest, and avoid alcohol and very fatty or spicy food while recovering
