The Human Body Infection Let me explain in a simple way
Types of Infectious Agents
Bacteria – e.g., Tuberculosis, Strep throat, Urinary tract infection
Viruses – e.g., Influenza (flu), COVID-19, HIV
Fungi – e.g., Ringworm, Athlete’s foot, Yeast infection
Parasites – e.g., Malaria, Tapeworm, Giardiasis
How Infection Enters the Body
Through air (coughing, sneezing – flu, TB)
Through food & water (cholera, typhoid)
Through skin wounds (tetanus, cellulitis)
Through sexual contact (HIV, syphilis)
Through insect bites (malaria, dengue)
Common Symptoms of Infection
Fever
Fatigue (weakness)
Redness, swelling, or pain
Cough, runny nose, or sore throat
Diarrhea or stomach painBody’s Defense Against Infection
Immune system fights using white blood cells & antibodies
Skin & mucous membranes act as barriers
Inflammation & fever help kill germs
Treatment of Infections
Bacterial infections → Antibiotics
Viral infections → Antiviral medicines (sometimes only supportive care)
Fungal infections → Antifungal drugs
Parasitic infections → Antiparasitic medicines
