Acute gastroenteritis is caused by pathogenic microbial infection, improper diet and other factors.
1. Pathogenic microorganism infection: common toxic infections include rotavirus, norovirus, adenovirus and astrovirus. Common bacterial infections include Escherichia coli, Salmonella, dysentery bacillus, and Leptospira parahaemolytica. In some cases, it may also be caused by parasitic infections such as amoeba.
2. Improper diet: mainly related to eating too cold and too hot, a lot of spicy and stimulating or acidic food.
3. Others: In addition, the occurrence of acute gastroenteritis is also related to heavy metal poisoning, low immunity, long-term improper use of antibiotics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and other factors.
When patients are detected with acute gastroenteritis, they need to actively cooperate with doctors to carry out standardized treatment, strengthen daily life management, and follow up on time.
