WHAT ARE INFECTIOUS DISEASES?
Infectious diseases spread between people and are caused by microorganisms, be they bacteria, viruses, parasites or fungi that penetrate, multiply and develop in any area of the body.
Infectious diseases are the consequences of injuries caused by the agent and the response or defense of the infected person's body.
Each person has a specific immune response, whether due to their
exposure history or genetics.
DO YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS?
They are normally manifested by symptoms and signs and by physiological, biochemical and histopathological changes.
If you notice any warning signs or have symptoms that you think are suspicious, book your appointment online today.
DIAGNOSIS
If you have been tested to see whether or not you have an infectious disease, make an appointment to be monitored by a doctor specializing in infectious diseases.
When faced with an infectious disease, the doctor establishes the diagnosis, requests possibly carrying out exams and specifically treats the
microorganism causing the problem.
Understand your results, receive a diagnosis and a treatment plan suited to your needs.
