Vaginal delivery causes stretching of the pelvic muscles [13] and the pudendal nerve. Obstetric injury is a leading cause of fecal incontinence. [14] Obstetric injury may tear the anal sphincters, and some of these injuries may be occult (undetected).

Chronic campylobacteriosis features a long period of sub-febrile temperature and asthenia; eye damage, arthritis, endocarditis may develop if infection is untreated.

In ascending infections, fecal bacteria colonize the urethra and spread up the urinary tract to the bladder as well as to the kidneys (causing pyelonephritis), [37] or the prostate in males. Because women have a shorter urethra than men, they are 14 times more likely to suffer from an ascending UTI. [11]
