septic arthritis
Acute inflammation of one or more joints caused by infection. Suppurative arthritis may follow certain bacterial infections; joints become swollen, hot, sore, and filled with pus, which erodes their cartilage, causing permanent damage if not promptly treated by giving antibiotics, draining the pus, and resting the joint. Nonsuppurative arthritis can accompany several diseases caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi; joints become stiff, swollen, and painful to move. Treatment includes rest, drugs, and, in the case of tuberculosis, orthopedic care to prevent skeletal deformity
septic shock
A condition of physiologic shock caused by an overwhelming infection, especially sepsis or septicemia
septic sore throat
infectious pain in the throat
septic sore throat
Strep throat

An on site waste water treatment system It usually has a septic tank which promotes the biological digestion of the waste, and a drain field which is designed to let the left over liquid soak into the ground Septic systems and permits are usually sized by the number of bedrooms in a house
septic system
A sewage system that relies on a septic tank and drainfield to store and/or treat wastewater
