10 Listeria Symptoms
Symptom #3: Diarrhea
It is unpleasant, but diarrhea is often another defense mechanism that helps to protect us against infection. When too much of a pathogen enters into the stomach and takes hold, one way to deal with it is to try and flush it from the body. Any exit will do so diarrhea is also fairly common.
Diarrhea can be caused by a wide number of things, most of which are quite harmless. Diarrhea will usually pass in a few days and the patient will make a full recovery. If associated with other symptoms though, then an infection such as listeria may be present and medical attention should be sought.
