2 août 2020 - Symptoms of Malaria

Description:

Malaria symptoms usually appear 10 days to one month after the person was infected. Symptoms can be mild. Some people don’t feel sick for up to a year after the mosquito bite. Parasites can live in the body for several years without causing symptoms.

Signs of malaria are similar to flu symptoms. They include:

Fever and sweating.
Chills that shake the whole body.
Headache and muscle aches.
Fatigue.
Chest pain, breathing problems and cough.
Diarrhea, nausea and vomiting.
As malaria progresses, it can cause anemia and jaundice (yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes).
