Infectious Disease Care

What is Infectious Disease Care ?

Infectious diseases are extremely common worldwide. Many infectious diseases cause complications. These can range from mild to severe. For some conditions, complications may include wheezing, skin rash, or extreme fatigue. Mild complications usually disappear as the infection resolves.

Certain infectious diseases may cause cancer. These include hepatitis B and C (liver cancer), and human papillomavirus (HPV) (cervical cancer). Doctors diagnose infectious diseases using a variety of laboratory tests. Samples of blood, urine, stool, mucus or other body fluids are examined and provide information used in the diagnostic process. In some cases, doctors identify infectious organisms by examining them under a microscope.

How is it done?

Treatment depends on which microorganism causes the infection.

  • If bacteria cause a disease, treatment with antibiotics usually kills the bacteria and ends the infection.
  • Viral infections are usually treated with supportive therapies, like rest and increased fluid intake.
  • Doctors treat fungal and parasitic infections with antifungal medications.
  • In all cases, doctors treat specific symptoms of infectious diseases.
