Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here...My Husband results positive to citrobacter amalonaticus. Hes now under citroproxin antibiotics. We would like to know how he got it and if it is necessary to follow special Hygene procedure .thank you Rosaria from Italy
Hi thanks for asking question. Citrobacter having worldwide prevalence, and it is composition of our normal intestinal flora also. If you have immunocompromised then chances of getting infection is more. Mostly it is hospital acquired infection. It is mostly spread by direct person to person contact. Particularly contact with hospital working staff.Sometimes it can also spread by pectoral route. I hope I have solved your query regard its transmission.
