10 Symptoms of Parvovirus
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #9: Joint Pain
Adults can catch parvovirus as well as children, although their symptoms are likely to be somewhat different to those that children show. For instance, adults are less likely to develop the tell-tale rash on the face. They are also unlikely to show other symptoms that children will show, except for polyarthropathy syndrome.
Polyarthropathy syndrome is a condition that people with arthritis will be familiar with. It includes stiffness in the joints as well as pain and swelling. It can be caused by numerous things, including parvovirus, but at least the symptoms should go away once the virus infection has been cured.
