Common salmonella symptoms include diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps, with symptoms beginning anywhere from six hours to six days after ingesting the bacteria.
Most people infected recover within four-to-seven days without treatment, though some people with increased risk factors may experience more severe illness, like arterial infections, endocarditis, and arthritis.
