The good news: Healthy adults usually recover from E. coli–related issues in about a week. In general, resting and drinking plenty of fluids to help prevent dehydration is the main thing to do.

The bad news: E. coli that causes bloody diarrhea can sometimes make people sick enough to wind up in the hospital. At the hospital, you can receive supportive care, like IV fluids, blood transfusions, and kidney dialysis, if necessary.

Even if you have a mild case and a doctor says you can recover at home, don’t take antidiarrheal medication, which slows down your digestive system and can make it take longer to feel better.

Peptic ulcer

A peptic ulcer is an open sore that develops either on the inside lining of your stomach (gastric ulcer) or the upper portion of your small intestine (duodenal ulcer). These ulcers can happen due to bacterial infections and the use of NSAID painkillers like aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen sodium, according to the NIDDK.

While the majority of people with peptic ulcers have no symptoms, the most common symptom you might experience is abdominal pain.
