What to do with the initial symptoms of suspected AIDS? 5 suggestions to correctly understand AIDS
Initial symptoms of AIDS:
1. Systemic fatigue, loss of appetite, persistent fever, significant weight loss, and sudden weight loss in a short period of time. Some symptoms are similar to a cold.
2. It is difficult to stop coughing for a long time. Blood in expectorated sputum accompanied by chest pain
3. Skin herpes, with an enlarged area and obvious pain, has not improved after several months of treatment. In addition, mucosal inflammation and ulcers occur in the mouth and throat.
4. In the absence of a clear cause for diarrhea, it has not recovered after long-term treatment.
5. AIDS will affect the nervous system, so if you have AIDS, you will be accompanied by mental retardation, convulsive hemiplegia, dizziness, pain and other symptoms. In addition, physical aging can also accelerate.
6. Symptoms of lymphadenopathy persist for more than six months and are ineffective for regular treatment. In this case, we should be alert to the early symptoms of AIDS.
Some people like to use the early symptoms of AIDS to suspect whether they are infected with AIDS? In fact, the early symptoms of AIDS are not the criteria for judging AIDS infection. AIDS can only be judged by testing. Before testing, do not diagnose, so as not to bring too much psychological pressure on yourself. If you suspect that you may be infected with HIV, you should go to a qualified hospital or other designated health department for HIV antibody testing to determine whether you are infected with HIV.
Every person newly infected with HIV has a "window period" process. The so-called "window period" refers to the time when HIV enters the human body and produces viral antibodies, which is usually two to three months, or even six months. So if there is a "dangerous behavior", for fear of infection with AIDS, HIV antibody test was immediately carried out and the result was negative. At this time, the conclusion is that AIDS is not infected prematurely, but it should be checked again at an early "window period". If there is no problem in the second examination, it can be determined that HIV is not infected, but it must be determined that there is no new "dangerous behavior" before the second examination. In particular, if a person is indeed infected with HIV, even in the so-called "window period", the AIDS virus can still spread.
