Reading

Measles

Measles, or rubeola, is a viral infection of the respiratory system. Measles is a very contagious disease that can spread through contact with infected mucus and saliva. An infected person can release the infection into the air when they cough or sneeze.

The measles virus can live on surfaces for several hours. As the infected particles enter the air and settle on surfaces, anyone within close proximity can become infected.

Drinking from an infected person’s glass, or sharing eating utensilswith an infected person, increases your risk of infection

What are the symptoms of measles?

Symptoms of measles generally appear within 14 days of exposure to the virus. Symptoms include:

· cough

· fever

· red eyes

· light sensitivity

· muscle aches

· runny nose

· sore throat

· white spots inside the mouth

A widespread skin rash is a classic sign of measles. This rash can last up to seven days and generally appears within the first three to five days of exposure to the virus.

A measles rash, which appears as red, itchy bumps, commonly develops on the head and slowly spreads to other parts of the body.

Diagnosing measles

Your doctor can confirm measles by examining your skin rash and checking for symptoms that are characteristic of the disease, such as white spots in the mouth, fever, cough, and sore throat.

If they are unable to confirm a diagnosis based on observation, your doctor may order a blood test to check for the measles virus.

TREATMENT

How to treat measles

There is no prescription medication to treat measles. The virus and symptoms typically disappear within two to three weeks. However, your doctor may recommend:

· acetaminophen to relieve fever and muscle aches

· rest to help boost your immune system

· plenty of fluids (six to eight glasses of water a day)

· humidifier to ease a cough and sore throat

· vitamin A supplements

COMPLICATIONS

Complications associated with measles

It is important to receive a measles vaccine because measles can lead to life-threatening complications, such as pneumonia and inflammation of the brain.

Other complications associated with measles may include:

· ear infection

· bronchitis

· miscarriage or preterm labor

· decrease in blood platelets

· blindness

· severe diarrhea

How to prevent measles

Immunizations can help prevent a measles outbreak. The MMR vaccine is a three-in-one vaccination that can protect you and your children from the measles, mumps, and rubella (German measles).

Children can receive their first MMR vaccination at 12 months, or sooner if traveling internationally, and their second dose between the ages of 4 and 6. Adults who have never received an immunization can request the vaccine from their doctor.

If you or a family member contracts the measles virus, limit interaction with others. This includes staying home from school or work and avoiding social activities.
