  "body": "<section>\n  <h1>What Are Mononucleosis Symptoms & Treatment Options?</h1>\n  <div class=\"answer-block\" itemscope itemtype=\"https://schema.org/Answer\">\n    <p itemprop=\"text\">Infectious mononucleosis, or mono, is caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, leading to symptoms like fatigue, sore throat, and fever. Diagnosis involves blood tests; treatment focuses on symptom relief through rest and hydration.</p>\n  </div>\n</section>\n<section>\n  <h2>Understanding Mononucleosis</h2>\n  <p>Mononucleosis is a viral infection characterized by fatigue, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, and fever. It primarily affects adolescents and young adults but can occur at any age. The virus spreads through saliva and close contact.</p>\n</section>\n<section>\n  <h2>Symptoms of Mononucleosis</h2>\n  <ul>\n    <li>Extreme fatigue and weakness</li>\n    <li>Sore throat, often severe and lasting weeks</li>\n    <li>Fever and chills</li>\n    <li>Swollen lymph nodes in neck and armpits</li>\n    <li>Headache and muscle aches</li>\n    <li>Enlarged spleen or liver in some cases</li>\n  </ul>\n</section>\n<section>\n  <h2>Diagnosis and Testing</h2>\n  <p>Healthcare providers diagnose mono with blood tests such as the monospot test or Epstein-Barr virus antibody tests, combined with physical examination. Early diagnosis helps prevent complications.</p>\n</section>\n<section>\n  <h2>Treatment and Management</h2>\n  <h3>Symptom Relief</h3>\n  <ul>\n    <li>Rest and adequate sleep</li>\n    <li>Hydration with fluids</li>\n    <li>Over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen</li>\n    <li>Sore throat remedies, such as throat lozenges</li>\n  </ul>\n  <h3>Additional Tips</h3>\n  <p>Antibiotics are ineffective against the virus. Avoid contact sports if spleen enlargement is suspected. Most patients recover fully within a few weeks, but fatigue may linger.</p>\n</section>\n<section>\n  <h2>Prevention Strategies</h2>\n  <p>Prevent mono by avoiding sharing drinks, utensils, and close contact with infected individuals. Good hygiene and avoiding saliva contact reduce risk.</p>\n</section>\n<section>\n  <h2>Find Compassionate Telehealth Care for Mononucleosis</h2>\n  <p>At <a href=\"https://www.helloklarity.com\" target=\"_blank\">Klarity</a>, licensed healthcare professionals provide virtual consultations to diagnose and manage mononucleosis symptoms quickly and conveniently.
