What are the symptoms of Sepsis?

Sepsis can cause various symptoms, affecting different parts of our body. One common sign is a Skin Rash that appears red and discolored. You may also have small, dark-red spots, primarily due to an infection like septicemia (blood poisoning).

Other common symptoms of Sepsis include:

  • Urinary Issues (such as reduced urination or a strong urge to urinate)
  • Feeling very tired or weak
  • Fast Heartbeat
  • Low Blood Pressure
  • Fever or very Low Body Temperature
  • Rapid Breathing or Difficulty in Breathing
  • Severe Pain or Discomfort

These symptoms can vary in intensity and indicate the presence of sepsis, which requires immediate attention.

The symptoms mentioned above can sometimes be confused with those of other conditions, such as Pneumonia, COVID-19, or Cancer. Moreover, identifying Sepsis symptoms can be challenging, especially in infants, children, and individuals with communication difficulties, learning disabilities, and dementia.

If you suspect Sepsis, seek immediate medical help. Sepsis specialists can examine you or your loved one to provide the best treatment.

How can I find a sepsis doctor near me?

To find a sepsis specialist in Hyderabad, use Skedoc. We have a list of verified doctors in Hyderabad. You can read reviews of the doctors and also book in-person or online consultations at your convenience.  A superficial infection can result in Sepsis if the treatment is delayed. It is a life-threatening medical emergency. To avoid the condition, get treatment for any infections immediately. A minor infection could lead to a deadly condition if treatment is delayed. If you have an infection that isn’t getting better or worsening, consult the specialist. Without proper treatment, Sepsis may result in septic shock (a dramatic drop in blood pressure that can damage organs). When the damage is severe, it can lead to severe complications and even death.
Frequently Asked Questions
The treatment for symptoms of sepsis and septic infection includes antibiotics, supportive care, maintaining fluid balance, and other appropriate interventions. These treatments can help cure the condition when initiated at the right time. However, even after initial recovery and cure of the infection, sepsis can have long-term effects.
Recovery of the organs affected by sepsis depends on how early in the course of the condition is treatment initiated and the supportive care provided. Early initiation of proper treatment followed by supportive therapy such as physical therapy and other interventions can help organs recover and prevent permanent damage.
As per the doctors, the three common causes of sepsis are respiratory infections like bronchitis and pneumonia, urinary tract infections (especially those involving the kidneys and bladder), and abdominal infections such as appendicitis, diverticulitis, or peritonitis. Sepsis can also originate from a focus of infection in other body parts, such as the skin and soft tissue.
Recovery from sepsis symptoms varies between individuals based on various factors such as the severity of the condition, the individual's age and immune system health, the presence of other medical conditions, the time and effectiveness of the treatment given, etc. Some people may recover fully within a few weeks, while others may take several months to return to normal.
The old 3 stages of classification of sepsis include sepsis, which involves infection and a systemic inflammatory response to the infection, severe sepsis, which results in organ dysfunction, and septic shock, the most severe stage of sepsis characterized by multiple organ failures due to circulatory collapse and lack of blood supply.
The common sites where sepsis can begin include the lungs, urinary tract, skin, abdominal organs, or blood. Once sepsis sets in, any organ can be affected, including the lungs, heart, kidneys, liver, brain, etc. The first affected organ varies between individuals and depends on their health and the medical conditions present.
The causes, symptoms, and treatment of sepsis vary between individuals, as do the multiple organs that can be affected and the organ that may shut down first. Sepsis can impact the kidneys, lungs, heart, brain, liver, and more, and any of these organs may be the first to shut down.
Sepsis is a medical emergency that requires immediate medical attention. Specialists adept at managing sepsis and preventing its complications include emergency medicine physicians and critical care specialists. Apart from these two specialists, infectious diseases specialists and other specialists such as nephrologists or pulmonologists may also be consulted.
