AIDS is a very common sexually transmitted disease in today’s society, and it is highly prevalent in homosexual sex. Since ancient times, countless people have died from AIDS. In order to prevent the development of AIDS and to provide better treatment for AIDS patients, there are even AIDS care activities, but there is still no effective treatment for AIDS, and many people are still suffering from AIDS today. So what are the symptoms of AIDS?
First, the symptoms of the early stage of AIDS 1, the acute stage: usually occurs about 2-4 weeks after the initial HIV infection, that is, the initial stage of infection, the main clinical manifestations are fever, sore throat, night sweats, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, rash, arthralgia, lymph node swelling and neurological symptoms. Most patients have mild clinical symptoms that last 1-3 weeks and then resolve. Patients will have raised papules on the skin surface, coarse ones are called nodules, those with clear liquid in the skin are called blisters, and those with yellowish liquid are called pustules.
2.Anaplasia phase: It can enter this phase from the acute phase, or directly without obvious symptoms of the acute phase. The duration of this period is generally 6-8 years. However, there are also those who progress rapidly and those who do not progress for a long time. The length of this period depends on the number and type of viruses infected, the route of infection, the immune status of the body and other factors. Due to the reduced immunity of AIDS patients, they are easily infected with herpes zoster. In normal people, herpes zoster is distributed in a band, while in AIDS patients, herpes zoster is generalized.
3.Late stage of infection: The main manifestations are fever, night sweats and diarrhea lasting for more than one month; weight loss of more than 10%. Some patients show neuropsychiatric symptoms, such as memory loss, mental apathy, personality change, headache, epilepsy and dementia. In addition, there may be persistent generalized lymph node enlargement, which is characterized by enlarged lymph nodes in two or more areas other than the groin.
How to prevent HIV infection 1.Since sex is the main way of STD transmission, as long as you adhere to cleanliness, no prostitution, no prostitution, avoid premarital sex and extramarital sex, and only have sex with one sex partner, you can basically prevent STDs. This is the most basic and effective way to prevent sexually transmitted diseases. Of course, some people think that as long as you avoid direct sexual intercourse, you can avoid sexually transmitted diseases. This is not true. Sexual behavior not only refers to male and female sexual intercourse, anal sex, oral sex and homosexuality can also be infectious diseases. Even the direct contact of the skin of the sexual organs and the contact of the hands and sexual organs also belong to the sexual behavior, can also indirectly infectious diseases.
2, AIDS and syphilis can also be transmitted through blood, so receive blood transfusions and blood products should be especially careful. Do not abuse blood products such as human albumin and gammaglobulin as supplements. Wound treatment, injection of drugs must go to a regular hospital, preferably with disposable syringes.
3, some easy to be ignored personal items such as toothbrushes, razors and shavers, bath towels must be used alone. This is because the razor is very easy to cause small breaks in the skin and become an intermediary for the transmission of AIDS, other STDs and hepatitis. The most important thing is not to use drugs and to stay away from them. If you can do this, then you can avoid contracting STDs, and even the most powerful AIDS will be helpless to you. Of course, mother-to-child transmission is another matter.
