Question:
My daughter has a severe kidney infection, caused by e-coli--the doctor says this was the most common form of?
a kidney infection..My question is how does ecoli get into your system, I thought you got it from undercooked poultry..I will ask him when he comes back into the room, they have admitted here at the hospital, I am watching her sleep she is only 14..Any answers would be greatly appreciated..
Answers:
This is not the strain of e-coli from our guts that got up the urinary tract, that will produce a UTI. The infection your daughter has is from animal guts. Cows, or unpasturized juices, and others. But from animal feces. this is a systemic infection from your child eating the bacteria, the reason she got the infection is because she is young. Very dangerous and certainly deadly. My best to her I am sure she will do fine.
