Title: Botulism Treatment Market - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Description: Botulism is a type of poisoning or infection caused by bacteria Clostridium botulinum. It is produced under low oxygen conditions and can have lethal effects on the human body. Some food sources such as preserved or fermented food and homemade canned food are potent breeding grounds for bacteria. Botulism directly affects nerve activity and blocks its functioning if left untreated for a longer period of time. Chest muscles, arms, and legs weakening are the most common problems of botulism. A person can be infected by consuming contaminated food that contains toxin or by injecting a toxin drug that causes wound botulism. The symptoms of botulism include double vision, drooping both eyelids, difficulty in swallowing, loss of facial expression, nausea, vomiting, and eventually constipation. Delay in treatment might result in paralysis, respiratory failure, or even death, as movement of muscles and respiration becomes difficult for the person affected with botulism. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
