How To Treat A Symptom of Mononucleosis

By Rickey Henolap


Mononucleosis is a viral infection which effects your white blood cells. The virus called the kissing disease has been present for many generations. The virus is contracted through saliva. The use of sharing utensils, glasses, or lipstick can contain saliva as well as kissing. Some of the symptoms are fatigue, headache, sore throat and possibly pain in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen. The part of the abdomen is your spleen, which filters your blood that contains the virus. You may notice when it is hard to swallow it may be affecting your lymph glands. Simple blood tests will test for this virus. Seeing white spots in your throat and the doctor feels an enlargement of your spleen or lymph glands he will order several natural solutions that will assist on your road to recovery. Recovery will be different for patients. This is a virus and does not respond well to antibiotics.

In some cases of mononucleosis after two or three days in addition to flu-like symptoms a patient may experience more severe conditions such as swollen lymph nodes, a sudden appearance of jaundice (a person's skin and eyes turn yellowish). Sometimes one of the symptoms of mononucleosis is the appearance of little red spots that resemble bruises and appear in the mouth area. Abdominal pain is also not uncommon for mononucleosis patients. Occasionally a measles-like rash can appear on a person's face or body one of the symptoms of mononucleosis. Some rear symptoms of mononucleosis may include cough, stiff neck, nosebleed, shortness of breath and rapid heartbeat.

If not treated with antibiotics, the mononucleosis symptom most often associated with mononucleosis, bodily fatigue, will invade other bodily functions and could even cause death. The disease known as mononucleosis is an attack by a herpes virus. The invading organism attacks red blood cells. As more and more red blood cells are attacked, the body makes more white blood cells to fight the invading virus.

The symptoms of mono the kissing disease start off by with the average signs of being ill. Most of the time you can expect a sore throat, a headache, and just a tired weak feeling. Your tonsils will more than likely start to swell up and turn a white color. Your lymph nodes on your neck will swell up. You can just touch the outside of your lymph nodes on your neck to generally know if they are swollen up or not. If you have these symptoms you should make sure to go to a doctor. You may not have mono the kissing disease. You should never diagnose yourself through what you think you know. Always visit a doctor.

Another treatment for mono kissing disease includes refraining from sex. Abstinence minimizes your chances of contracting this and other contagious diseases from another person. Mono kissing disease is contracted through the exchange of bodily fluids such as: mucus and saliva. As well, mononucleosis is nicknamed ''Mono Kissing Disease!

A healthy, well-balanced diet has been proven to help a person recover from Mononucleosis quicker. One should make sure that his or her diet consists mostly of fruits, vegetables, grains and unprocessed foods. That will allow for the body to get enough of the vitamins and minerals that boost the immune system. Processed foods and foods that are high in fat or sodium should be avoided.
