Does enterovirus cause diarrhea?
Beside this, what are the signs and symptoms of enterovirus?
Symptoms of an enterovirus infection may include:
- Runny nose, sneezing, cough.
- Sore throat.
- Body and muscle aches.
- Conjunctivitis (also known as pink eye or Madras eye)
- Non-itchy rash on the skin.
- Sores on the mucous membranes, such as blisters inside the mouth.
Also to know, how long does it take to get over enterovirus?
The prognosis of most enterovirus infections is good; most individuals will spontaneously resolve their infection in about seven to 10 days and have no complications. Some patients, especially those who are immunocompromised in any way, may develop more severe infections.
In general, infants, children, and teenagers are most likely to get infected with enteroviruses and become ill. That's because they do not yet have immunity (protection) from previous exposures to these viruses. Adults can get infected with enteroviruses, but they are more likely to have no symptoms or mild symptoms.
