Indiana fever

Indiana fever or Vesicular stomatitis is a disease of the oral cavity, accompanied by the appearance on the mucous membrane of the gums, cheeks, tongue, and sometimes in the pharynx, where many tiny transparent bubbles form and an inflammatory reaction develops. Appears due to various viruses, for example, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr, coronavirus and others. During infection, the temperature may rise to 38 degrees and you may feel weak. Infection with the virus can occur through airborne droplets through kissing and touching. There is also a risk of infection through personal hygiene items. Most often, the disease is suffered by young people aged 20 to 40 years. Herpes is especially common among people living in large cities in the USA and Western Europe. Before the bubbles appear, the patient feels a burning sensation in the mouth and tries to talk as little as possible and not touch his lips with his hands. Blisters in the mouth may be surrounded by red spots. Symptoms last from 4-6 to 14 days. Then the blisters stop appearing, but may become sunken. Blisters cover all the mucous membranes of the oral cavity. Redness and swelling can be observed on the lips, the inside of the mouth and the lining of the cheeks. Possible increased body temperature and general malaise. To prevent the appearance of these symptoms, it is enough to follow the basic rules of prevention. The most important rule is that you should not come into contact with your toiletries and other personal hygiene products that may contain the herpes virus. Doctors remind that you need to thoroughly wash fruits and vegetables and monitor your level of personal hygiene after interacting with sick people. It is also important to remember that regular use of vitamin C is especially important when the body is under stress, such as before a visit to the dentist or after a dental procedure. In this way, the body will recover faster and protect itself from the invasion of viral flora. If you encounter such symptoms, it is advisable to immediately consult a doctor.
