Understanding Acute Gastroenteritis
When the lining of the stomach and intestines becomes inflamed for a short time, doctors call it acute gastroenteritis. It is often called a stomach bug, traveller’s diarrhoea or food poisoning, and most cases resolve in a few days.
Common Triggers
Dirty water or food, meat that is not cooked through, shellfish, salads that were rinsed in tap water, ice cubes, and close contact with a person who already has the illness are the usual routes. Warm weather helps germs multiply, so holiday buffets and hot afternoons raise the risk.
Signs of Acute Gastroenteritis to Look for
- Watery diarrhoea
- Headache, tiredness and muscle aches
- Nausea and vomiting
- Low-grade fever
