10. Muscle Aches: The Uncomfortable Impact of Adenovirus Infection
Muscle aches, also known as myalgia, are a common symptom of adenovirus infection. These aches can occur throughout the body and are often accompanied by joint pain and stiffness.
To help manage muscle aches caused by adenovirus infection, consider over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Warm baths or the application of heating pads to affected areas can also provide relief. Gentle stretching and light exercise may help alleviate muscle stiffness and improve overall comfort.
If muscle aches are severe, persistent, or accompanied by other concerning symptoms, it’s essential to seek medical attention, as these could be signs of a more severe infection or other underlying issue. (10)
