Emergencies >>>> Seafood can cause poisoning
Seafood can cause poisoning.
In a series of food poisoning, seafood poisoning is one of the first places. The danger of seafood poisoning lies in their staleness, since living organisms of the seas, oceans, rivers, lakes and other bodies of water, used for food, tend to disappear (decompose) very quickly after some time after catching. During the decomposition of seafood, especially toxic substances are released, which cause poisoning.
When eating crayfish, shrimp, lobster, crabs, octopus, squid, mussels, oysters and other molluscs, snails, it matters how much time has passed since the catch of seafood, at what temperatures they were transported, how long they defrosted, if it is frozen seafood ... The products of freshwater basins disappear most quickly, since the saline solution of the seas and oceans, salt lakes keeps ocean and marine animals from being infected with certain types of dangerous bacteria and other harmful microorganisms.
Poisoning with seafood can be caused by improper transportation and storage, during which seafood becomes infected with quite trivial types of terrestrial bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, salmonella, botulism bacteria, staphylococcus aureus, and others).
Signs of seafood poisoning will not be long in coming:
- nausea,
- acute attacks of pain in the intestines,
- dizziness,
- vomit,
- diarrhea,
- seizures are possible,
- the temperature may rise.
Due to the fact that seafood poisoning can have very serious consequences associated with neurological disorders, when comparing painful symptoms with the use of sea or river animals in the near future, it is necessary to urgently call an ambulance. You can only take the following actions on your own: drink a large amount of saline or soda solution in order to induce vomiting, crush the tabletted adsorbent (activated carbon) to a powdery state and drink after vomiting. You can not use antiemetic and pain relievers, so as not to change the picture of the course of the disease.
