Patient's question:
I have been experiencing dizziness recently, and I can't eat properly either. My mental state isn't great either. The hospital check-up revealed a blood-related issue. When is sepsis typically detected?Doctor's answer:
Hello, welcome to consult. Septicemia is caused by the pathogens from other infectious foci infiltrating into the bloodstream and becoming acclimated. Therefore, it cannot be detected in the early stages. Only the primary infectious focus was observed, and additional anti-infection treatment was given, which was ineffective. When recurrent chills, high fever, and other systemic toxic symptoms became uncontrollable, blood bacterial culture was performed, revealing the recurrence of septicemia. At this stage, it is often necessary to use antibiotics in combination for treatment.
