Home remedies for dysentery



Dysentery is one of the oldest known and most common gastrointestinal disorders but its notoriety cannot take away the discomfort and pain it brings along with it. The disorder is a general term for a group of gastrointestinal disorders that usually attacks the intestines, particularly the colon causing inflammation. Dysentery may lead to severe diarrhea accompanied with blood and mucus in the stools, and it may prove fatal if left untreated, especially if the person suffering from it cannot replenish the fluids lost.
If the acute symptoms are not properly treated, it can result in chronic attack. Here, the general health of the patient gets disturbed. Diarrhea can be followed by constipation in many cases. There can also be a rise in body temperature. If it affects the young, elderly, or already ill patient, it could be dangerous, even fatal.
In most situations, signs and symptoms of dysentery are mild and most people try and use home remedies to cure it. This is, however, discouraged in Western Europe, North American and many other countries, as dysentery falls under the ‘notifiable disease’ list and local authorities need to be informed about such cases. There are two main types of dysentery; one is bacillary dysentery and the other amoebic dysentery. Bacillary dysentery is caused by a bacterium called Shingella, it is common type of this condition for people who haven’t been to the tropics. Amoebic dysentery on the other hand, is caused by Entamoeba Histolytica, a type of amoeba commonly found in the tropics. This is probably why people living or who have recently visited the tropics and have diarrhea might have more severe symptoms as compared to people living in developed countries.
Symptoms of dysentery usually show after one to three days after the person has been infected with the bacteria, or what is more commonly known as the ‘incubation period’. The signs and symptoms of diarrheaare abdominal pain, watery diarrhea (with or without blood/mucus/pus), nausea and vomiting, painful passage of stools, infrequent constipation, and fever and chills.
Basic among men, ladies, and kids, dysentery can be intense or constant. The intense structure is portrayed by pain in the guts locale, dysenteric movements, and diarrhea. There could be pain before emptying the entrails. Sometimes, in uncommon cases, the discharge comes in the stool. This is on the grounds that the soluble gastric juice and spit turn acidic as the digestive framework is tossed out of the rigging and the stomach is not able to process or assimilate food. This is generally a troublesome, however transient condition.
Mild dysentery is curable at home. Visit to a doctor or spending a lot of money on prescriptions in such cases is not required.
