Physical examination of patients with traveler's diarrhea may be remarkable for abdominal tenderness, fever (occasionally), and signs of dehydration, such as abnormal orthostatic vital signs, reduced skin turgor, slow capillary refill, and dry mucous membranes. Physical examination among patients with severe dehydration may be remarkable for altered mental status. Physical examination may also be remarkable for findings suggestive of complications of the traveler's diarrhea (e.g. hemolytic uremic syndrome, abscess formation, cognitive dysfunction, ocular disease).
