Dysentery is the syndrome of abdominal pain, tenesmus and diarrhea with viscid red or white grains as well as pus and blood in the feces. It occurs most commonly in summer and autumn. When blood predominates it is known as “red dysentery.” When white viscid grains or pus predominates it is known as “white dysentery.” If pus and blood are comparable in quantity it is known as “red and white dysentery.”
