Joseph is a 34-year-old man who arrives at the emergency room having returned from a vacation to Cuba 3 weeks ago. He had profuse diarrhea for about 5 days while he was in Cuba. The diarrhea settled by the time he returned to Canada. His primary concern now is swelling and pain in his right knee, left ankle, and left elbow. He is worried that infection from the diarrhea has somehow gotten into his joints. He asked whether he should have received antibiotics while in Cuba, and whether he needs any right now.
