Doctors for Ergotism Treatment in Chandanagar

Ergotism is a poisoning that happens after eating grain or food contaminated with a fungus called ergot. It can cause burning pain, muscle spasms, nausea, numbness, and in severe cases poor blood flow that may lead to darkened fingers or toes. It is rare today, but it was once a serious problem when contaminated rye was common.

Ergotism may cause symptoms such as nausea, muscle cramps and hallucinations. Depending on the condition and its severity, delayed medical care may result in persistent symptoms, progression of the disease, or related complications.
