What Is Adenovirus?
5. Digestive System Infections
Adenoviruses are also sometimes the cause behind infections of the digestive system. They can cause unpleasant symptoms like stomach cramps, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and headaches. They will usually pose no threat to the patient, but there is a risk of dehydration in the more severe cases.
Another potential infection caused by adenoviruses is urinary tract infections. These can be quite painful, causing a burning sensation in the urethra when urinating. It can also make the patient need to pass urine more frequently than usual, and it can also result in blood in the urine. Urinary tract infections can also cause pain, fever, and chills.
