Is Toxic Shock Syndrome Sneaking Up on You? The Shocking Signs You Can’t Ignore (And How to Stay Safe)
How is toxic shock syndrome diagnosed?
Watching your symptoms can offer a pretty clear indication of whether you have TSS or not. If you think you’re showing TSS symptoms, call your primary care doctor or clinician and schedule an appointment at their earliest availability.
During diagnosis, your doctor will first review all your symptoms. They will conduct a physical examination to check for fever, low blood pressure, rashes and skin redness. Make sure to share whether you’ve experienced any unseen symptoms, such as confusion, headache, muscle aches and nausea. Your doctor needs to know all the ins and outs of your symptoms for accurate diagnosis. Based on your symptoms, they’ll be able to determine if your case of TSS has advanced to a multisystem organ infection – whether or not the infection is affecting multiple organs.
