People infected with Salmonella typically develop symptoms between 12 and 36 hours after infection, but this can range from 6 to 72 hours. The most common symptom is diarrhoea, which can sometimes be bloody. Other symptoms may include fever, headache, and abdominal cramps. The illness usually lasts between 4 and 7 days. Diarrhoea can occasionally be severe enough to require hospital admission. The elderly, infants, and those with impaired immune systems are more likely to develop severe illness.
