Symptoms and signs of pox
Fever and rashes are the main symptoms of pox, and children suffer pre-heat, ingest, fatigue, distress, stomach loss, etc. Before rashes appear。
The rash caused by the pox is itching and usually occurs one day after the frontal symptoms. At the very beginning, the rash was a small red rash or a small rash above the skin, which looked like a little bag of larvae or insect bites. The rash then developed into thin walls filled with fluid-filled water herbs. Then the herb broke, and it dried up. New rashes appeared after several days inland and became herpes and herpes。
This rash is characterized by a “fourth world” in which rashes, rashes, herpes and contusions can be seen at the peak of the disease. The rashes of the pox tend to appear first in the front, back, face and then develop to other parts of the body, including the scalp, mouth, limbs and genitals。
Water pox rashes may be relatively severe or more widely distributed among children with rashes. Relatively older children or adults, younger children suffer from less symptoms and less herpes。
How did the pox spread
The pox is extremely contagious, ranging from one to two days before the rash and from the rash to the rash, and it is contagious throughout its course. The pox can be transmitted by coughing and sneezing, or by direct contact with the pox patient (e. G. Herpes). Those who did not suffer from pox or who were not vaccinated with pox have symptoms such as rashes in about two weeks of their first exposure to the pox virus, with most showing signs of disease within 10 to 21 days。
Any complications with a pox
Apox is a benign self-restrictive disease, and only a very small number of patients, such as those suffering from bacterial skin infections, pneumonia and encephalitis, infants or adults with impaired immunization, may have complications。
What are the treatments for pox
Poxes are viral infections that cannot be treated with antibiotics, but can be treated with medication to alleviate symptoms。
1. Mitigating the aching symptoms of fever and rashes
Heating: acetylaminophenol (tanol or essential) can be reheated. It is important to note that aspirin cannot be used to cool children with pox, otherwise there is a risk of causing brain and liver damage。
Itch: anti-amphetamine drugs can be administered to mitigate the accelerosis of pox, e. G., cyretan, cactin, benhelam. Itching can also be done using the steroid. The sick should be warned to avoid scratching, otherwise there is a risk of scarring。
Oral herpes: the child may have reduced food intake as a result of herpes pain, and parents need to encourage the child to ingestion sufficient liquid to help prevent dehydration and control fever。
2. Antiviral treatment
People at risk of serious pox, such as children over the age of 12 who are not vaccinated against pox or who suffer from immunisation, can be helped with antiviral drugs at an early stage of the process (e. G., azulové, fallowé)。
3. Segregation and exposure protection
If the child suffers from a pox, the school should be suspended from the home to rest in isolation until the last shelva. The herpes, which are already dry, are non-transmissible and the vast majority of those who had previously had poxes will not be infected again。
Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent pox
Vaccination against pox is the most effective method of preventing pox, which is currently included in the national immunization programme as a self-funded category ii vaccine. Some of the children who have been vaccinated may also have a pox after exposure to the pox virus, but usually the symptoms are lighter, no fever, less rashes and faster recovery. In addition, there is no need for vaccination if a pox has been infected prior to vaccination, since if a pox has been infected in the past, the pox is immunised for life。
Adults who are not immune to pox are currently recommended for vaccination, especially those at risk of infection with pox, as well as those at risk of exposure to acute pox, such as health workers, persons with close contact with immuno-impaired persons (including organ transplants and aids patients), early childhood teachers, staff of day-care institutions, vulnerable young people in institutions of higher education or re-education through labour, international travellers, and women in reproductive years. It is important to note that women who are pregnant or are about to become pregnant are not vaccinated against pox。
In the case of vulnerable populations, it is not clear whether there has been a previous infection with a pox, and blood tests can be conducted to ascertain if there is an anti-pox virus. (jang bainran)
