Causes, symptoms and treatment of botulism
An example is Botox, which is a bacterium that produces neurotoxins related to botulism. (Roalalstaytos/Stokes) "KDSPS" Botulinum poisoning is a rare but serious disease, which is caused by toxins released by a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum. According to the World Health Organization, these toxins are one of the deadliest substances known to mankind. Even a small amount can be fatal. Fortunately, this bacterial infection is rare. Botulinum toxin "kdspe" and "kdsps" affect the body by blocking nerve information. People infected with this bacteria often lose control of their muscles. Benjamin Chapman, an associate professor at North Carolina State University and a food safety expert, said: "They are basically paralyzed because toxins surround these nerves and block this information." According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), there are five main types of botulism: food poisoning and traumatic botulism. Infant botulism, adult enterotoxemia botulism and iatrogenic botulism. All kinds of botulism are fatal and medical emergencies. Causes and Symptoms Food-borne Botulinum Poisoning occurs by eating contaminated food or inhaling bacterial spores, which is one of the most terrible food-borne diseases we suffer. An example of food poisoning occurred in May, 20 17, when NACHO cheese sauce killed 1 person and made nine people sick. Symptoms of "kdspe" and "kdsps" in "MKO Clinic" usually start between 12 minutes and 36 hours, but range from several hours to several days. The incubation period of this bacterium in children and adults is 12 to 72 hours. The appearance of symptoms depends on how many bacteria are ingested.

Common symptoms are:

Nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, dry mouth, dysphagia, weakness of speech and face, drooping eyelids on both sides, blurred vision in both eyes, and respiratory paralysis Another type of botulism is wound botulism. This is caused by bacteria entering the wound, which can lead to infection that produces toxins. People who inject drugs are more likely to suffer from this kind of botulism.

The symptoms of wound botulism are:

Babies with dyspnea, swallowing or slurred speech, weak eyes and face, drooping eyelids and paralysis may also be exposed to Botox. Infant botulism refers to the growth of botulism spores in infants' intestines. According to the National Library of Medicine, this is the most common form of botulism, which usually occurs in children aged 6 weeks to 6 months. However, the 6-day-old baby of 1 year may be affected, and the baby is poisoned by Botox.

Symptoms usually appear about 18 ~ 36 hours after infants ingest bacteria, and the incubation period of infants is 3 ~ 30 days.

Symptoms include:

Constipation (which is usually the first symptom) is because muscle weakness makes it difficult to suck or eat. The drooping eyelids control the head weakness, crying, irritability, fatigue and paralysis of adults with enterotoxemia. Botulinum poisoning refers to bacterial spores entering adult intestines. The Centers for Disease Control says that once they grow there, they will produce this toxin. This is called hereditary botulism. Botox is actually made of toxins produced by Botox. "It is extremely rare for KDSP people to get botulism due to injection of botulinum toxin," said Dr. Alexes Hazen, an associate professor in the Department of Plastic Surgery of new york University. Botox used in cosmetics is a highly regulated and attenuated botulinum toxin. This is possible if a person is using Botox without FDA approval.

Iatrogenic botulinum poisoning may also occur when too much botulinum is injected at one time. According to the Centers for Disease Control,

Diagnosis and treatment In order to diagnose botulism, medical staff usually do an examination to find muscle weakness or paralysis. Blood, feces or vomit can also be analyzed. "KDSP" and "KDSP" usually remove toxins by inducing vomiting or defecation, thus treating food-borne or infant botulism. Wound botulism can be treated by removing infected tissue. Antitoxins and antibiotics can also be used for various forms of botulism. "KDSP" and "KDSP" may need rehabilitation treatment to help the body retrain after nerve damage caused by toxins. "KDSP" has many ways to prevent "KDSP" botulism. First of all, food should be prepared and stored safely. For example, according to the Mayo Clinic, when canned food, it should be cooked at 250 degrees Fahrenheit (12 1 Celsius) for 20 to 100 minutes, depending on the food. In addition, if the food container is swollen or the food smells, it is best to throw it away.

According to the National Library of Medicine, in order to prevent infant botulism, don't give honey or corn syrup to infants under/kloc-0. Wound botulism can be avoided by not injecting or inhaling street drugs.
