2. Food Poisoning
While food poisoning is not necessarily a disease, it is a common illness that is associated with staph infections. The symptoms of food poisoning include nausea and vomiting. A person may also experience low blood pressure during this time. It can often be difficult to associate food poisoning with a staph infection because nausea and vomiting are common symptoms of many different types of infections and illnesses.
Typically, these symptoms will appear just a few hours after eating food that is contaminated. In minor cases of a staph infection, the symptoms will last for less than a day. However, if these symptoms persist for more than two days it is important to seek medical attention. If the symptoms are persistent and you are not eating or drinking enough it can cause you to become dehydration, which can lead to a host of other health issues, so it is important to take proper care to avoid becoming dehydrated.
