Do you know the signs of AIDS? There are mainly these 6
When it comes to cancer, many people are afraid, and the incidence rate of cancer is getting higher and higher, the damage to the human body is also serious, and the mortality rate is even higher. But in addition to cancer, sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS also make people feel particularly scared. Some people do not understand AIDS and will feel particularly helpless when encountering it. This disease is contagious to a certain extent, and there will be symptoms before the onset, but many people are not aware of it, so in order to avoid harm to the body, you must pay more attention.
What are the signs of AIDS?
1. Symptoms may appear like a common cold or flu
In the early stages of the onset of AIDS, the more common symptoms are actually similar to those of a common cold and fever. For example, some people will feel fatigue and weakness, and some people will have symptoms of cough or fever. Generally, as the condition worsens, the corresponding symptoms will gradually increase.
2. Skin changes will occur
Usually among the early symptoms of AIDS, the most common phenomenon in many people is that the skin and mucous membranes will have symptoms, for example, it is mainly caused by infection by Candida albicans. Infections often occur in the folds of the skin. Thrush, inflammation of the corners of the mouth, and vaginal inflammation are more common in the mucous membranes. Many people will have herpes or purple spots, bruises, etc.
3. Keep having a fever
After being infected with HIV, if it invades the internal organs, it will cause constant fever for unknown reasons. Some people may last for three or four months, or may be accompanied by coughing or difficulty breathing. Some people may also experience symptoms of shortness of breath or blood in the stool.
4. Poor appetite
Such patients usually experience gastrointestinal discomfort, which can easily lead to persistent diarrhea or abdominal pain. Some people often experience nausea and vomiting, which can lead to loss of appetite over time.
5. Body weight loss
Similar to diabetic patients, after contracting AIDS, there will be obvious changes in body shape, such as unexplained weight loss. Generally, most patients will lose about 10% of their weight within three months after the onset of the disease, and some people's condition is more serious.
6. Lymph nodes throughout the body become swollen
In the early stages of the disease, such patients will have swollen lymph nodes throughout the body, especially in the neck, armpits, and groin. The lymph nodes will be significantly swollen. Most of the lymph nodes caused by AIDS are more than one centimeter in diameter. They are usually firm in texture but not painful.
At present, the incidence of AIDS is relatively high and the contagion is relatively strong. Since everyone's constitution is different, the aura and clinical symptoms caused by it are different and complex. Therefore, not everyone will have the above symptoms after being infected with HIV. In addition to the above symptoms, other people may also experience neurological symptoms, such as memory loss or dizziness and headaches. Some people have slow reactions or mental abnormalities. Therefore, after abnormality occurs, go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible.
