What Is a Viral Infection?
10. What Are Treatment Options for Viral Infections?
Viral infections are treated in different ways, depending on the type and cause of the infection. Vaccines are commonly used to prevent viral infections in the first place, but if you do develop a viral infection, your doctor may treat you with antiviral medicine.
Every case is different, which is why treatment should be recommended on a case-by-case basis. It’s important to talk to your doctor about treatment options that are available for your specific type of viral illness.
