Infectious Diseases Treatment in Gurgaon – Optimus Multispecialty Hospital

At Optimus Multispecialty Hospital, Gurgaon, our Department of Infectious Diseases provides advanced diagnosis, treatment, and management for patients suffering from a wide range of bacterial, viral, and parasitic infections. Our goal is to ensure accurate diagnosis, rapid recovery, and prevention of complications through expert medical care, modern diagnostics, and evidence-based treatment protocols.

What Are Infectious Diseases?

Infectious diseases are illnesses caused by microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites that invade the body and disrupt normal health. These diseases can spread through air, water, food, blood, or physical contact — which makes early detection and medical care crucial.
At Optimus Hospital, we focus on both acute infections (like typhoid or dengue) and chronic infections (like tuberculosis or hepatitis), offering personalized care for each patient.

Diseases Covered Under Infectious Disease Care
1. Typhoid Fever

Typhoid is caused by Salmonella typhi bacteria and spreads through contaminated food or water.
Symptoms include: high fever, abdominal pain, weakness, and loss of appetite.
At Optimus Hospital, we provide rapid diagnosis (Typhidot, blood culture) and targeted antibiotic therapy, along with hydration and dietary management.

2. Dengue Fever

Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral infection that can cause high fever, body ache, and platelet drop.
Our specialists monitor platelet counts and manage Dengue Shock Syndrome in our high-dependency and critical care units.
Early diagnosis and fluid therapy are key to a safe recovery.

3. Malaria

Malaria is caused by Plasmodium parasites transmitted by mosquito bites.
We use blood smear and antigen tests to confirm diagnosis and provide anti-malarial medication based on the infection type (P. falciparum, P. vivax, etc.).
Severe malaria is treated with IV medications and supportive care in the ICU.

4. Tuberculosis (TB)

Tuberculosis is a chronic bacterial infection affecting the lungs or other organs.
We perform chest X-rays, sputum tests, GeneXpert, and TB culture for accurate diagnosis.
Treatment involves long-term antibiotic therapy (DOTS regimen) and regular follow-up with our pulmonology and infectious disease specialists.

5. COVID-19 & Post-COVID Complications

Our hospital played a leading role in COVID-19 management in Gurgaon.
We continue to provide care for:

  • Active COVID-19 infections

  • Long COVID symptoms (fatigue, breathlessness, lung fibrosis)

  • Post-COVID heart or kidney complications
    Diagnosis is done using RT-PCR, HRCT chest scans, and antibody tests.

6. Influenza / Viral Fever

Viral fevers like Influenza (Flu) and Seasonal Viral Infections cause body pain, sore throat, and high fever.
We provide flu testing, antiviral medication, and symptomatic care to reduce discomfort and speed up recovery.
Vaccination is recommended for high-risk groups every year.

8. HIV / AIDS Management

HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) weakens the immune system and can progress to AIDS if untreated.
We provide:

  • HIV testing & CD4 count

  • Antiretroviral Therapy (ART)

  • Opportunistic infection management
    Our team ensures confidentiality, counselling, and lifelong support for patients.

9. Urinary Tract Infections (UTI)

UTIs are caused by bacterial infection in the bladder or kidneys.
Symptoms include burning urination, fever, and lower abdominal pain.
We use urine culture, microscopy, and antibiotic sensitivity testing to treat both simple and recurrent UTIs effectively.

10. Sepsis & Septicemia

Sepsis is a life-threatening infection that spreads in the bloodstream and affects multiple organs.
Our Critical Care & ICU team provides:

  • IV antibiotics

  • Fluid resuscitation

  • Organ support (ventilator, dialysis, vasopressors)
    Early detection and prompt treatment in ICU can be lifesaving.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

If your fever lasts more than 3 days, or you experience fatigue, rashes, or breathing difficulty, consult a doctor immediately to rule out dengue, malaria, or typhoid.

No, both are mosquito-borne diseases and do not spread through person-to-person contact.

Hepatitis A & E can resolve with treatment. Hepatitis B, C, and HIV can be controlled effectively with lifelong medication and monitoring.

Viral infections (like influenza or dengue) are caused by viruses and treated symptomatically, while bacterial infections (like typhoid or UTI) require antibiotics.
