An abdominal infection is an infection which occurs in the abdomen, the area of the body between the thorax and the pelvis. There are a number of causes for abdominal infections, ranging from ruptured organs to surgical procedures, and these infections can be life-threatening if not treated promptly and aggressively.


To address concerns about the possibility of organ failure as a result of abdominal infection; many of the risk factors for abdominal infection are well known, when a risk factor like recent surgery or abdominal trauma is present, a medical team will usually issue prophylactic antibiotics to the patient to prevent infection, and the patient will be monitored quickly for the early signs of infection. If an infection is detected, prompt medical attention is required to prevent complications which can vary from permanent organ damage to death.

depends on the cause. bed rest and antibiotics may be sufficient for some while surgery for other causes. if you are worried, take her to a proper hospital for blood/urine/stool testing as well as an abdominal scan. DO NOT SELF MEDICATE! if the bacteria is resistant to the drug you pick up all you end up doing is agravating your sisters liver.
