Answers:
Signs and Symptoms
A salmonella infection generally causes nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, diarrhea (sometimes bloody), fever, and headache!. Because many different kinds of illnesses can cause these symptoms, most doctors will take a sample of a child's stool to make an accurate diagnosis!.

Symptoms of most salmonella infections usually appear within 3 days of contamination and typically go away without any medical treatment!.

In cases of typhoid fever caused by salmonella bacteria, early symptoms are the same!. But in the second week, the liver and spleen can become enlarged, and a distinctive "rose spotted" skin rash may appear!. From there, the infection can cause other health problems, like meningitis and pneumonia!.

People at risk for more serious complications from a salmonella infection include those who:

have compromised immune systems (such as people with HIV)
take cancer-fighting drugs
have sickle cell disease or an absent or nonfunctioning spleen
take chronic stomach acid suppression medication
In these higher-risk groups, most doctors will treat an infection with antibiotics to prevent it from spreading to other parts of the body and causing additional health problems!.

Prevention
You have many ways to help prevent salmonella bacteria from making your child sick!. Most salmonella bacteria appear in animal products and can be killed by the heat from cooking!. So it's important to make sure that your child does not eat raw or undercooked eggs, poultry, or meat!.

Because salmonella bacteria can contaminate even intact and disinfected grade A eggs, avoid serving your child poached eggs or eggs that are served sunny-side up!.

Salmonella also can be spread through cross-contamination, so when you're preparing meals, try to keep uncooked meats away from cooked and ready-to-eat foods!. In addition, it's important to thoroughly wash your hands, cutting boards, counters, and knives after handling uncooked foods!.

Some foods may contain unrecognized raw-food products and should be avoided!. Caesar salad dressing, the Italian dessert tiramisu, homemade ice cream, chocolate mousse, eggnog, cookie dough, and frostings can contain raw eggs!. Unpasteurized milk and juices also can be contaminated with salmonella!.

Fecal matter is often the source of salmonella contamination, so hand washing is extremely important, particularly after using the toilet and before preparing food!.

Take care to avoid contact with the feces of family pets - especially reptiles!. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling an animal and ensure that no reptiles are permitted to come into contact with an infant!. Even healthy reptiles (especially turtles and iguanas) are not appropriate pets for small children and should not be in the same house as an infant!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
