Mononucleosis, caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, presents with fatigue, sore throat, fever, and swollen lymph nodes. Treatment focuses on symptom relief through rest, hydration, and medical support from licensed providers, often via telehealth.
Mononucleosis, commonly known as mono, is an infectious disease caused by the Epstein-Barr virus. It spreads through saliva and affects people of all ages but is most common among teenagers and young adults.
Healthcare providers diagnose mono through physical exams, blood tests (like heterophile antibody test), and evaluating symptoms. Accurate diagnosis is essential for appropriate treatment and management.
There is no specific antiviral treatment for mono. Management includes rest, hydration, and over-the-counter pain relievers to reduce fever and sore throat.
Licensed healthcare professionals can prescribe medications if secondary bacterial infections develop. Telehealth services offer convenient access to expert care, often within 24 hours, from providers like Klarity.
Prevention involves avoiding sharing drinks or utensils and practicing good hygiene. Seek medical attention if symptoms worsen, if you experience severe abdominal pain, or if you suspect spleen enlargement.
There is no cure for mono; treatment focuses on relieving symptoms. Most people recover fully within a few weeks, but fatigue can last longer in some cases.
Symptoms typically last 2-4 weeks, but fatigue and swollen glands may persist for several weeks or months in some cases.
Seek medical care if you experience severe sore throat, high fever, abdominal pain, or signs of spleen enlargement, or if symptoms persist beyond a few weeks.
