Jaundice


A very common infection of the liver which shows symptoms like nausea, itching on skin, bitter tongue, pale look of the face with a yellow coloration of the eye. The Hepatitis A virus attacks the liver which starts producing extra bile. Contaminated water or unhygienic food is the main reason for this infection.

This is a water-borne disease, seen very commonly in summers.  It is caused by bacteria called Salmonella typhi. You can even get vaccinated for it every 2 years. Children are given a vaccine initially to protection from this.

Food Poisoning


This is a typical infection which happens within 6-8 hours of eating contaminated food kept in low levels of hygiene. The first symptom is vomiting with pain in stomach and loose motion. Food poisoning can happen in any weather, but during summers the food gets spoilt faster increasing the chance of infections.
