Get Precise Diagnosis and Treatment for Mononucleosis

Mononucleosis (Mono) is a contagious viral infection that mostly affects young adults and adolescents, but others can also get infected. Though it is generally a mild infection, leaving it untreated can cause some serious complications in people with weakened immune systems, such as cardiac problems and enlarged liver and spleen. So, visit One Medical Center to get treated with prompt care and attention.

Swollen armpit or groin

Mononucleosis is often caused by:

Epstein-Barr virus

Cytomegalovirus

How Does Mononucleosis Spread?

As it often spreads through saliva, Mono is called the kissing disease. However, besides kissing, one can contract the infection through:

Respiratory droplets when the infected person coughs or sneezes

Tears or nasal/throat secretions

Contact with semen or blood

Sharing foods or utensils with the infected person

If your condition is aggravated, you may experience:

Pain in the upper left side of the abdomen (this indicates your spleen has ruptured following enlargement)

Conditions affecting the liver, such as jaundice and hepatitis

Anemia

Skin rashes (may be a sign of low platelet count or another serious complication)

Cardiac and neurological issues

You should seek immediate medical assistance if you experience any of the above symptoms.

How Is Mononucleosis Diagnosed?

We will review your symptoms and ask you how long you have been experiencing them. We will also perform a physical exam that includes examining your lymph nodes, liver, tonsils, spleen, etc.

For a complete diagnosis, we will recommend the following procedures:

Blood Test – To check the white blood cells count or any abnormalities in them.

Antibody Test – Examines your blood for the presence of antibodies to combat the Epstein-Barr virus.
