Salmonella is a bacteria usually transmitted through undercooked meat or dairy products, specifically poultry or eggs. Symptoms include abdominal cramping and severe diarrhea. If you exhibit these symptoms you should contact a medical professional.
The bacterium induces responses in the animal that it is infecting and this is probably what causes the symptoms rather than any direct toxin. They are usually gastrointestinal including nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps and bloody diarrhea with mucus. Headache, fatigue and rose spots are also possible. These symptoms can be severe especially in young children and the elderly. Symptoms last generally up to a week, and can appear 6 to 72 hours after bacterium ingestion.
After bacterial infections, reactive arthritis (aka Reiters Syndrome) can develop.[1] In sickle-cell anemia, osteomyelitis due to Salmonella infection is much more common than in the general population.
