Gastroenteritis Causes
Gastroenteritis has many causes. Viruses and bacteria are the most common.
Viruses and bacteria are very contagious and can spread through contaminated food or water. In up to 50% of diarrheal outbreaks, no specific agent is found. Improper handwashing following a bowel movement or handling a diaper can spread the disease from person to person.
Gastroenteritis caused by viruses may last one to two days. On the other hand, bacterial cases can last for a longer period of time.
Viruses
Fifty to seventy percent of cases of gastroenteritis in adults are caused by the noroviruses.
Rotavirus is the leading cause of infection in children.
Other viruses that cause gastrointestinal symptoms include:
- Adenoviruses
- Parvoviruses
- Astroviruses
Bacteria
Bacteria may cause gastroenteritis directly by infecting the walls of the stomach and intestine. As well, some bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus can form a toxin that is the cause of symptoms. Staph is a common type of food poisoning.
Escherichia coli can cause significant problems, and one type of the bacteria, E. coli O157:H7 can also affect kidney function.
Salmonella, Shigella and Campylobacter
Salmonella, Shigella and Campylobacter are also common causes of illness.
- Salmonella - the cause of typhoid fever is contracted from handling poultry or reptiles such as turtles that carry the germs
- Campylobacter - from the consumption of undercooked meat, unpasteurized milk
- Shigella - typically spread from person to person
Clostridium difficile
Clostridium difficile (C difficile) bacteria may overgrow in the large intestine after a patient has been on antibiotics for an infection.
Parasites and protozoans
These tiny organisms are less frequently responsible for intestinal irritation. You may become infected by one of these by drinking contaminated water. Swimming pools are common places to come in contact with these parasites. Common parasites include these:
- Giardia - The most frequent cause of waterborne diarrhea, causing giardiasis
- Cryptosporidium - Affects mostly people with weakened immune systems and causes watery diarrhea
Other common causes
Gastroenteritis that is not contagious to others can be caused by chemical toxins, most often found in seafood, food allergies, heavy metals, antibiotics, and other medications.
ouch!! it hurts!! no move involving stomach movement please..tq...
