They never came to me. Although there is still time before the New Year.
Clostridia is more often remembered in connection with antibiotics. By 1978, so many antibacterial agents were used in medicine that complications began in hospitals.
Their own microbes in the stomachs of the patients died, and the vicious Clostridia caused inflammation of the large intestine. A very dangerous complication.
By about 2000, this disgrace reached its peak. Clostridia have been reliably prescribed in hospitals and nursing homes. There, approximately every tenth sick or old man or sick old man became carriers and excreted spores of the microbe.
Interestingly, people who were infected the first time suffered the most, and the carriers did not feel so bad.
It happened that a dangerous inflammation of the intestines happened even in healthy people who had not taken any antibiotics for a long time.
They appear to have been infected through food or domestic animals. So Clostridia rather than sneak in on the sly, but are carried into our mouths with hands and other dirty objects.
In the hospital, not only people receiving antibiotics were hit, but also those who managed to ingest antibiotics while still at home.
Who is most at risk
That same Clostridium spreads in the form of spores and is very easily transmitted through dirty hands.
Most at risk are people with weakened immunity, over 65 years of age and taking antibiotics. The most dangerous thing is the uncontrolled use of fluoroquinolones like levofloxacin, protected penicillins and cephalosporins.
Even after stopping antibiotics, people remain very vulnerable to Clostridium. Worst of all in the first month, but you still can't relax until three months.
It also turns out to be harmful to suppress the acid in the stomach. From this, the Clostridium will attack 2 to 3 times more often.
In short, don't take antibiotics unnecessarily, don't suppress stomach acid unnecessarily, don't kiss cats and dogs, and wash your hands and other apples before eating.
