What is acute gastroenteritis?
When the lining of the stomach and intestines becomes inflamed for a short time, doctors call it acute gastroenteritis. It is often called a stomach bug, traveller’s diarrhoea or food poisoning, and most cases resolve in a few days.
What can cause acute gastroenteritis
Contaminated food or water, undercooked meat, shellfish, unwashed salads, ice in drinks, or contact with someone who is already ill. Hot weather lets bacteria multiply rapidly, which is why it is frequent on summer holidays.
Kaleici: local notes for acute gastroenteritis
Kaleici is the walled old harbour quarter of Antalya, with Roman gates, a tower, narrow Ottoman streets and boutique hotels, so hot cobbled walks and long days outdoors are typical. All-inclusive buffets sit out in the heat for hours, so tummy bugs spread quickly through resort hotels. Tell your hotel if you are ill, and stay out of the pool until you have been symptom-free for 48 hours.
Travel guide to Kaleici
Trip for travellers: Kaleici is built for beach days. Plan swimming, pool time and local restaurants, and book boat trips or day excursions through your hotel or a local agency. Shops tend to sell beachwear, souvenirs and leather goods.
Prevention tips
Wash hands before eating, choose food that is freshly cooked and served hot, drink sealed or bottled water, and be cautious with salads and ice if you are unsure of their source.
How acute gastroenteritis is treated
A video visit lets the doctor judge how dehydrated you are, ask about food and travel history, advise what to drink and eat, and prescribe appropriate medication where suitable. The e-prescription can be collected at the nearest pharmacy. Treatment can involve oral rehydration solutions, anti-sickness medicine and pain relief; antibiotics only for specific causes.
- Rest, and avoid alcohol and very fatty or spicy food while recovering
- Sip oral rehydration solution (sachets from any pharmacy) little and frequently
- Add plain foods such as rice, bananas, toast or soup as appetite returns
