Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection caused by the Leptospira bacteria. It is primarily transmitted to humans by animals, particularly rodents, through contact with contaminated water or soil. Common symptoms include high fever, muscle aches, headaches, and jaundice.
The treatment for leptospirosis typically involves a combination of antibiotics, such as doxycycline or penicillin, along with supportive care. Severe cases may require hospitalisation for close monitoring, intravenous fluids for hydration, and additional interventions to manage complications.
Mild cases often resolve within a few weeks with appropriate treatment. However, severe cases may require a longer recovery period, and complications may necessitate further medical interventions. Seeking prompt medical attention is essential to prevent complications and ensure a successful recovery from leptospirosis.
