Food Poisoning Listeria Lawyer
In some cases of food poisoning, your symptoms may be gone in a couple of hours. Though for the unlucky few, exposure to food that has been contaminated may lead to a bacterial infection known as Listeria. Those who have been exposed to the bacteria will see symptoms begin a few days after they've eaten contaminated food, but it can take up to 30 days or more before the first signs and symptoms of infection begin. Listeria symptoms may include but are not limited to neck stiffness, headaches, confusion, fever, convulsions, loss of balance, and muscle aches. Women who are pregnant can experience flu-like symptoms, including muscle aches, fever, exhaustion, and fatigue. In some cases, listeria infections during pregnancy may lead to miscarriage, stillbirth, premature delivery, or life-threatening infection of the newborn.
Foods that may cause you to be exposed to listeria are:
- Soft cheeses such as queso fresco
- Melons
- Sprouts
- Hot dogs
- Deli meats
- Pâtés
- Smoked seafood
- Unpasteurized milk
