Is gastroenteritis contagious

Acute gastroenteritis is not contagious. Acute gastroenteritis is an acute inflammation of the gastrointestinal mucosa, characterized by nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever, etc., caused by improper diet, overeating, or eating raw or cold food. However, gastroenteritis is often similar to cholera, which can also be characterized by gastroenteritis symptoms, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc. Cholera is a more serious infectious disease. Therefore, when showing nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, pay attention to the difference with cholera. If acute gastroenteritis, pay attention to prevent spicy stimulation of cold diet, when necessary, you can use some protective gastric mucosa to inhibit acid drugs and antidiarrheal drugs, so it will improve. If cholera, be sure to be hospitalized to prevent transmission to others.
