ANA GARCIA The change of season and low temperatures in recent weeks have brought to the surface of intestinal virus, which has caused a flurry of visits to health centers for stomach problems. Vomiting, fever and diarrhea are the main symptoms of gastroenteritis, but also presents with severe abdominal pain as cramps. This was said yesterday the president of the Murcia of Family and Community Medicine (Smumfyc), Juan de Dios Gonz?lez Caballero, who said that the highest peak of the recorded cases last week, visitors also increased by mild colds.

It is also more common in children, hence children have been more numerous patients in consultations Murcia. Gonz?lez Caballero noted that "among the children stomach virus spreads more, because they are more sensitive and transmit it to classmates and their parents" and said that each doctor is seeing four to five cases per day these days, "but is usual at this time."
For this reason, the Spanish Association of Pediatrics (AEP) is recommended to vaccinate children from acute gastroenteritis caused by rotavirus, and they estimate that each year more than 2,000 children under five Murcia pass by the physician as consequence of this disease. They claimed that the vaccine would be reduced by up to 95% of visits to emergency departments and hospital admissions for this cause.

However, do not extend much because a low-fat diet can also contribute to the onset of chronic diarrhea. The main risk of gastroenteritis, as the president of the Smumfyc, is dehydration because the body loses lots of fluids and minerals from diarrhea and vomiting, so it is necessary to drink plenty of fluids to replace those losses occurring abundant .
