10 Coxsackievirus Symptoms
Symptom #9: Headaches
Headaches are a common finding among viral infections. Headaches usually appear in the early stages of the disease, just when the fever and malaise sets in. They are usually mild to moderate and tend to resolve on their own once the disease starts to go away.
If the headaches are too intense or if they are associated with neck pain, lethargy and vomiting, this could be a sign that the disease has spread into the central nervous system, causing a condition known as aseptic meningitis. If this is the case, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible to prevent further complications.
