Doctor tells Russians about first symptoms of Coxsackie virus
The doctor told Russians about the first signs of the Coxsackie virus.
Infectious disease specialist Evgeny Timakov explained how the disease caused by this pathogen manifests itself.
In a conversation with Izvestia , the doctor reported that the first symptoms include high body temperature, rashes on the arms and legs, and indigestion.
In addition, the Coxsackie virus is characterized by herpetic angina. This is a severe sore throat, watery pimples in the mouth against the background of a very high temperature.
As for digestive disorders, the patient experiences vomiting, abdominal pain, and loose stools.
If the body cannot fight the virus in the early stages, this is fraught with the development of complications.
Timakov emphasized that it is important to see a doctor if you have the Coxsackie virus. A specialist will find therapeutic methods that will help avoid complications.
The infectious disease specialist added that the Coxsackie virus is also characterized by seasonality: summer and early autumn.
He noted that the infection most often occurs during the period when people return en masse from vacation.
