Will I be Able to Get Social Security Disability for Enteritis
Will I be able to get Social Security Disability for enteritis? You are probably asking this question because you have this disorder and complications have resulted from it and/or other debilitating conditions that you have along with it have caused you to be disabled, unable to work and in need of financial assistance.
In most instances, enteritis would not normally qualify you to receive Social Security Disability. However, as just mentioned, you may have complications that have resulted from enteritis and/or other disabling conditions in addition to enteritis that may qualify you to get Social Security Disability. The best thing to do is to contact the disability attorney at disabilitycasereview.com, and have your case evaluated at no cost or obligation to you.
Inflammation
Enteritis is inflammation of your small intestine. It is evidenced by swelling and irritation of your small intestine. In some cases, enteritis may also affect your large intestine (colitis) and your stomach (gastritis).
Your small intestine is made up of three sections that are known as the duodenum, jejunum and ileum. Enteritis may occur in any one of these three sections.
There are several different kinds of enteritis. Some of these include:
E. coli enteritis
Campylobacter enteritis
Salmonella enteritis
Radiation enteritis
Staph aureus food poisoning
Shigella enteritis
Medication induced enteritis
Drug or alcohol induced enteritis
Food poisoning
Viral or bacterial enteritis.
The signs and symptoms that are caused by enteritis may begin anywhere from hours to days after you are infected with the disorder. Possible signs and symptoms are:
Diarrhea that may be severe and acute
Bowel movements that are black
Bleeding, pain or mucus-like discharge from your rectum
Blood in your stool
Vomiting and nausea
Fever
Loss of appetite
Dehydration
Abdominal cramping and pain
Inflammation and swelling.
In most cases, enteritis is caused by eating or drinking something that is contaminated with bacteria or viruses. However, there are other causes of enteritis, which include:
Celiac disease
An autoimmune condition, such as Crohns disease
Damage from radiation therapy
Certain drugs that include cocaine, naproxen sodium and ibuprofen.
Again, enteritis would not normally qualify you for Social Security Disability. This is because it is usually a short-term (acute) condition that you get over in a few days. However, it can be long-term (chronic), and affect you in an ongoing way.
If this is the case, and complications have resulted from enteritis and/or you have other disabling conditions along with the disorder that have caused you to be disabled, unable to work and in need of financial assistance, you may have applied for that financial assistance by applying for Social Security Disability from the Social Security Administration. Were you turned down?
