Got a Staph Infection from Bad Food?
Our Orlando Food Poisoning Lawyer Can Help
Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium that grows in some foods. But it is not the bacteria, but a toxin the bacteria produces, that causes extreme vomiting. It is most often contracted from infected food workers or through eating contaminated milk or cheese. These toxins are fast acting and consumers may experience symptoms within 30 minutes.
Symptoms of staphylococcus (often known as staph infections) to the skin include impetigo and cellulitis. In some cases, scalded skin syndrome can develop on the food poisoning victim. Staph infections are usually treated with an antibiotic ointment. Some victims may also be treated with oral antibiotics.
Staph infections can be complicated and painful for all victims. If you have been infected with staphylococcus, it is important to speak with a qualified Florida food poisoning attorney who has experience with these cases. For more information about staphylococcus, contact an Orlando food poisoning lawyer at our firm today.
