Symptoms of Burkholderia infections and how to treat them?
The Burkholderia genus of bacteria, which may infect both people and animals, is what causes Burkholderia infection. Depending on the precise kind of bacteria involved and the infection location, the symptoms of Burkholderia infections might change.
Generally speaking, fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, muscular pains, and weariness are some of the prevalent symptoms of Burkholderia infections. Skin infections, urinary tract infections, and sepsis are examples of other symptoms. Burkholderia infections can, in extreme situations, cause pneumonia, meningitis, and even death.
Antibiotics and supportive care are commonly used in the treatment of Burkholderia infections. Ceftazidime, meropenem, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole are three antibiotics that are effective against Burkholderia bacteria. The kind of Burkholderia bacteria causing the infection and its sensitivity to antibiotics will determine the exact drug administered.
