Symptoms of Mononucleosis
Typically, the initial symptoms and signs of mono occur about 10 days after exposure in children and 30 to 50 days after exposure in adults. These symptoms include lack of energy, headache, fatigue, loss of appetite and chills.
After three to five days, any combination of the more intense symptoms and signs may become present, including:
* severe sore throat
* fever
* swollen glands in the neck, armpits and groin
* nausea
* vomiting
* upset stomach
* enlarged spleen
* enlarged liver
* swollen eyelids
* swelling around the eyes
* rash
* weight loss
* drowsiness
* muscle aches or stiffness
Less frequently occurring symptoms and signs include:
* mild jaundice (a yellowish tint to skin)
* neck stiffness
* sensitivity to light/FONT
* cough
* shortness of breath
* chest pain
* rapid and/or irregular heart rate
* nosebleeds
* hives
Complications are rare and hospitalization is seldom required when they do occur. The most common complication is dehydration from not drinking enough fluids. Breathing may be obstructed by enlarged tonsils, adenoids and other lymph tissue in the back of the throat. On rare occasions, the enlarged spleen will rupture if the abdomen is hit or strained.
Additionally, the person may develop, hepatitis (inflammation of the liver), pericarditis (inflammation of the sac surrounding the heart), myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle), encephalitis (inflammation of the brain) or hemolytic anemia (destruction of the red blood cells).
