Bacterial infection: A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, multiply, and infect the body. It can target any part of the body and multiply very quickly. When you get infected with bacteria, you can experience generalized symptoms like fevers, chills, and fatigue. Anyone can get a bacterial infection, but people with a weak immune system or taking immunosuppressive medicines like steroids are more prone to infections. A few harmful bacteria that commonly cause infections include Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and E. coli. AMYCOL LB CAPSULE does not work against infections caused by viruses, including cold and flu.
