- An infection that leads to the production of pus is called a purulent infection. When pus forms within enclosed spaces in the tissues, it causes abscesses. When it forms on the skin surface, it causes lumps known as pustules or pimples.Pus can also form when infections develop in internal organs, such as the bones, brain, lungs, and gastrointestinal tract.hen pus forms within enclosed spaces in the tissues, it causes abscesses.

Kevin Conrad A puerperal infection, or puerperal sepsis, is a condition that occurs when a new mom experiences an infection related to giving birth.Puerperal infections are the sixth-leading cause of death among new mothers, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).fter giving birth, women are more vulnerable to infections of the genital tract. Bacteria are opportunistic and thrive in warm, moist environments, like the genital and urinary tracts. Bacteria known to cause a puerperal infection include:

- Abscesses usually form because of an infection or because a foreign object becomes trapped in your body. When your body fights an infection or tries to destroy a foreign object trapped inside, white blood cells fill the affected tissues, and the resulting fluid is called pus.bscesses usually form because of an infection or because a foreign object becomes trapped in your body.

The Presence of Bacteria in a Urinalysis Sample E coli is one of the most predominant bacteria in the colon that can cause a UTI. Most urinary tract infections begins with a single bacteria making its way into the urethra and beginning to grow and multiply. A bacterial infection in the urethra is called urethritis. If the bacteria travels up the urethra to the bladder, it causes an infection of the bladder called cystitis. Bacteria that travels up to the kidneys via the ureters causes an infection in the kidneys called pyelonephritis.

- What is pus? Pus is a thick, whitish to yellowish material composed primarily of dead cells that generally forms as a by-product of bacterial infections. The inflammatory cells that participate in the body’s immune response at the site of an infection eventually degrade and die, creating the substance known as pus. One of the most common types of bacteria that cause pus formation is Staphylococcus aureus, although any bacterial infection may produce pus. An infection that leads to the production of pus is called a purulent infection. When pus forms within enclosed spaces in the tissues, it causes abscesses. When it forms on the skin surface, it causes lumps known as pustules or pimples.

Inflammation 1 Purulent inflammation: Inflammation resulting in large amount of pus, which consists of neutrophils, dead cells, and fluid. 2  Infection by pyogenic bacteria such as staphylococci is characteristic of this kind of inflammation. 3  Large, localised collections of pus enclosed by surrounding tissues are called abscesses.

Chapter 4 Bacteriology 3 5 BACTERIAL INFECTIONS  An infection occurs when body tissues are invaded by disease-causing or pathogenic bacteria.  The presence of pus is a sign of infection.  Pus is a fluid product of inflammation and contains white blood cells and the debris of dead cells, tissue elements, and bacteria.

Safe Care Staph is a type of bacteria. It may cause skin infections that look like pimples or boils. Skin infections caused by Staph may be red, swollen, painful, or have pus or other drainage. Some Staph (known as Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcusaureus or MRSA) are resistant to certain antibiotics, making it harder to treat.t may cause skin infections that look like pimples or boils.

Human Physiology/Print Version The root cause of septicemia is a bacterial infection (typically severe) in another part of the body. Urinary tract infections, lung infections, and infections in the abdominal area are all potential causes of septicemia. Bacteria from these infections enter the bloodstream and multiply, causing immediate symptoms.epticemia is also known as bacteremia or blood poisoning. Septicemia occurs when a bacterial infection enters the bloodstream. Untreated septicemia can quickly progress to sepsis, which is a serious complication of an infection characterized by inflammation throughout the body.

Inflammation Prolonged inflammation, known as chronic inflammation, leads to a progressive shift in the type of cells present at the site of inflammation and is characterized by simultaneous destruction and healing of the tissue from the inflammatory process.Inflammation is not a synonym for infection.

Necrotizing Fasciitis (Flesh-Eating Bacteria) Necrotizing fasciitis is an infection caused by bacteria. It can destroy skin, fat, and the tissue covering the muscles within a very short time. The disease sometimes is called flesh-eating bacteria.When it occurs on the genitals, it is called Fournier gangrene. Necrotizing fasciitis is very rare but serious.ecrotizing fasciitis is caused by several kinds of bacteria. Some of these bacteria also cause infections such as strep throat and impetigo. Usually the infections caused by these bacteria are mild. But in rare cases they can cause a more dangerous infection.

- Drainage of pus is a typical consequence of a bacterial infection. Bacterial infection can either be localized, such as an infection of a small cut or wound in the skin, or it may spread to involve larger areas of the body. A number of different infections can cause small bumps or nodules that may drain pus.nfections of the genital tract or urinary tract may cause drainage of pus in the urine or vagina in women. When bacteria enter the bloodstream, a potentially life-threatening condition known as sepsis ( blood poisoning ) is the result.

Pus Pus is an exudate, typically white-yellow, yellow, or yellow-brown, formed at the site of inflammation during bacterial or fungal infection. An accumulation of pus in an enclosed tissue space is known as an abscess, whereas a visible collection of pus within or beneath the epidermis is known as a pustule, pimple, or spot.

Boil For other uses, see Boil (disambiguation). A boil, also called a furuncle, is a deep folliculitis, infection of the hair follicle. It is most commonly caused by infection by the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, resulting in a painful swollen area on the skin caused by an accumulation of pus and dead tissue. Boils which are expanded are basically pus-filled nodules.

Urinary Tract Infection  In-Depth Report Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs). Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a common type of infection caused by bacteria (most often E. coli) that travel up the urethra to the bladder. A bladder infection is called cystitis. If bacterial infection spreads to the kidneys and ureters, the condition is called pyelonephritis.fter a week of antibiotic treatment, most patients are free of infection. If the symptoms do not clear up within the first few days of therapy, doctors generally suggest that women discontinue their antibiotic and provide a urine sample for culturing in order to identify the specific organism causing the condition.

What are Bacteria? Bacterial Skin Infections. Bacterial skin infections are usually caused by gram-positive strains of Staphylococcus and Streptococcus or other organisms. Common bacterial skin infections include: 1  Cellulitis causes a painful, red infection that is usually warm to the touch.2  Folliculitis is an infection of the hair follicles that causes red, swollen bumps that look like pimples. 3  Impetigo causes oozing sores, usually in preschool-aged children. 4  Boils are deep skin infections that start in hair ...ometimes, these infections aren't associated with any symptoms but can still cause serious damage to the reproductive system. Common STDs caused by bacterial infections include: 1  Chlamydia is an infection in men and women caused by an organism called Chlamydia trachomatis.
