Listeria infection can cause serious illness
But listeriosis can cause serious illness for adults over the age of 60, people with compromise immune systems, pregnant and newborns.
Listeriosis is called invasive if it spreads beyond the gastrointestinal tract. During pregnancy, invasive listeriosis can cause miscarriage, mortinity, premature delivery or deadly infection of the newborn.
In other high -risk groups, invasive listeriosis can cause serious illness or even death.
Invasive listeriosis can cause the following symptoms:
- Fever
- Muscle pain
- Headache
- Stiff neck
- Confusion
- Loss of balance
- Seizures
Sometimes these symptoms occur after diarrhea or other gastrointestinal problems.
If you are in a high-risk group and you feel pseudo-scriptable symptoms within two months of the consumption of potentially contaminated food, you should get medical care and talk to your doctor about your Listeria concerns.
