MONONUCLEOSIS: ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE EVIL.
Mononucleosis(mono) is a well-known infection that refers to kissing sickness. Saliva is the main way of contracting this virus of mono (Epstein-Barr virus). Not only you can catch this virus through kissing, but you can also catch it by sharing a glass or food utensils with the mono patients. But it is important to know that this virus is not contagious as cold.

Symptoms
As sign and indication of mononucleosis virus we are:

The virus has an eggshell period of about four to six weeks, although in young children this period can be shorter. The eggshell period refers to how long before your symptoms appear after being exposed to the virus. Signs and symptoms such as a fever and sore throat usually lessen within a couple of weeks. But tiredness, increase volume of lymph nodes and a swollen spleen may last for a few weeks longer.
If you are having these symptoms, you need to go and see a doctor. Let us discover its causes.
MONONUCLEOSIS CAUSES
The most popular cause of mononucleosis is the Epstein-Barr virus, but other viruses also can have similar symptoms. This virus is spread through saliva, and you may catch it from kissing or from sharing food or drinks.
MONONUCLEOSIS TREATMENTS
There's no specific therapy available to treat infectious mononucleosis. Antibiotics don't work for viral infections such as mono. Treatment generally involved taking care of yourself, such as getting enough rest, eating a healthy diet, and drinking plenty of fluids. You may take over-the-counter pain relievers to treat a fever or sore throat.
Medications
- Treating secondary infections and other complications. A streptococcal (strep) infection sometimes goes along with the sore throat of mononucleosis. You may also develop a sinus infection or an infection of your tonsils (tonsillitis). If so, you may need treatment with antibiotics for these accompanying bacterial infections.
Severe narrowing of your airway may be treated with corticosteroids.
- Risk of rash with some medications. Amoxicillin and other antibiotics, including those made from penicillin, aren't advised for people with mononucleosis. In fact, some people with mononucleosis who take one of these drugs may develop a rash. The rash doesn't necessarily mean that they're allergic to the antibiotic, however. If needed, other antibiotics that are less likely to cause a rash are available to treat infections that may go along with mononucleosis.
