Salmonella Infection:
Salmonella infections frequently cause a fever, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pain in healthy people. In very rare cases, a salmonella infection can cause the organism to enter the bloodstream, where it can cause more serious conditions like endocarditis, arthritis, and vascular infections which are all characterised by inflammation of the heart and blood vessels.
