What Is a Rotavirus Infection?
3. Symptoms
The symptoms of a rotavirus infection will usually only be mild, and many people with the disease will show no symptoms whatsoever. To begin with, the patient is likely to show vomiting and a fever. These symptoms are likely to show with 2 days of contracting the disease.
Then will come diarrhea, which will usually last for 3 to 8 days. Some patients will also complain of mild pain in the abdomen area. While the symptoms are usually only mild, vulnerable patients should be monitored for signs of dehydration, which has the potential to be dangerous for some people.
