Symptoms of Salmonella food poisoning usually take six hours to six days to appear. Most people recover on their own without medical attention, but some people do require hospitalization, usually for dehydration. Symptoms include fever, chills, headache, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, abdominal pain and cramps, and diarrhea that may be bloody or watery. If you or your child is experiencing these symptoms, call your doctor.
