Body aches and fever: infectious disease specialist talks about chickenpox symptoms in adults
Adults who contract this infection experience a number of unpleasant symptoms.
Getting rid of the disease can be difficult. In children, everything goes much easier.
Infectious disease specialist Narzullo Shukrilloev spoke about this in more detail, writes the publication News.ru.
As the specialist noted, with chickenpox the temperature rises to 39-40 degrees. It can be difficult to bring down the temperature with such a disease.
In addition, the person suffers from itching, and the lymph nodes become enlarged.
The doctor noted that it is important to understand that the immunity of an adult is already formed, accustomed to fighting more familiar diseases. Chickenpox in this case will be something new.
It is also important to consider that an adult's immune system may be weaker due to lifestyle. This may make it more difficult to fight the virus.
As the doctor added, existing chronic diseases can also create problems.
