However, they may cause other symptoms. For example, ovarian cysts, such as those that result from polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), can cause hormonal problems. Polycystic kidney disease (PKD), which causes cysts to form in the kidney, can affect kidney function. Cysts usually grow slowly and have a smooth surface. They can be tiny or very large.
Social contact. Current evidence doesn't suggest that you can catch CJD through normal social contact, the air, touching, drinking from the same cup, kissing or sexual contact. You don't need to wear gloves when touching a loved one with CJD or their clothes, sheets, towels, etc.
C. difficile can be very contagious. C. difficile is easily spread from people who are infected to others through touch, from contact with contaminated objects or surfaces (like cell phones, shopping cart handles, gym equipment, etc).t is very important to wash your hands well after using the bathroom, as C diff resides in your stool. If you touch a contaminated surface and then eat (without washing your hands) you can ingest the bacteria which could then cause an infection.
