How long does Sepsis take to go into effect, after infection?
from a local infection site like that you would notice lots of painful localised swelling, redness and itching etc, it would probably start to spread up your foot and you could see this happening. A healthy person would develop a fever and start to feel unwell with a worsening infection like this before a sepsis was likely (unless it was a really, really nasty bug). People who have problems with immunity (or those with diabetes) would wanna sort it urgently as their risk of rapidly developing sepsis is high. Sepsis equals- high temp, low blood pressure, purpuric rash and deterioration unless treated. Aren’t you glad your toe-nail is better.
