The negative effects of mononucleosis

Infectious mononucleosis is a variety of diseases caused by a specific type of the herpes virus-Epstein-Barr. As a rule, the effects of mononucleosis negative, if you do not start in time to treat it.
The Main source of infection is considered to be in direct contact with an infected person. For example, with the saliva of the virus enters a healthy organism, then develops motoricerca angina. Of course, a high immunity is a protective function, as not every person in contact with the Epstein-Barr bug. It is known that a certain number of the herpes virus there is in every human being.
Symptoms and effects of infectious mononucleosis often resemble other diseases, it is difficult to detect the disease and determine its stage. At the initial stage there is a General weakness of the body, disturbed appetite. Typically, this period lasts 1-3 days, then there are more serious symptoms which cause the body harder to fight the virus.

The next stage can appear the inflammation of the throat, feverish chills, enlarged lymph nodes located in the neck. To rule out the unfortunate consequences of mononucleosis, you should see a specialist.
Are Also common signs of infectious mononucleosis is the appearance of white patches on the tonsils, enlarged spleen, rash on human skin. Very often, the lesions are similarities with symptoms of measles.
Of Course, the most accurate diagnosis can be made after the study of the composition of the blood. The main indicator of the presence in the blood of Epstein-Barr is to increase the number of white blood cells or leukocytes. The contents of abnormal cells is a clear indicator of the development of the disease infectious mononucleosis. But these bodies appear on the stage full of infection, so in the first weeks after infection, to identify them it is impossible or quite difficult.
To eliminate the effects of mononucleosis, it is necessary to begin treatment. First of all, it should be aimed at elimination of symptoms. But, for example, are often appointed antiviral drugs that significantly prolong the period of mononucleosis, and affect the General condition of the human body. The antibiotics may lead to an allergic reaction, which take on a characteristic rash in infectious mononucleosis.
Of Course, the effects of mononucleosis in children impose a negative impact on the further development of the organism. The most “harmless” the consequences of mononucleosis-is an inflammatory process of the liver and enlarged spleen. It does not require special treatment and long-term phase of rehabilitation of the patient. To more serious should include hemolytic anemia (or destruction of white blood cells), pericarditis (or inflammation of the heart bags), myocarditis (or inflammation of the heart muscle), encephalitis (or brain inflammation).
The special features of the disease in young children should include the rarity of the cases and pronounced symptoms in the first days after infection. Acute tonsillitis begins with a fairly rapid increase in the lymph nodes. But after some time the tonsils are greatly reduced to the original shape. Can appear the characteristic cough and runny nose. It is advisable to prevent getting the virus Epstein-Barr in the body of a child or adult. To achieve this, regular anti-epidemic procedures in the possible places of infection (kindergartens, hospitals, other public institutions). In the presence of the disease, usually the patient isolated from society until full recovery.
