What Is the Mumps?
10. Treatment
There is no direct treatment for trumps, but the immune system is usually enough to fight off the disease. Patients are recommended to get plenty of rest and to isolate themselves from other people as much as reasonably possible. Most people will make a full recovery from the disease in just a few weeks or so.
Mild pain killers may be prescribed, while paracetamol or similar may be given to help relieve a fever. Some home remedies such as a cold compress may also be able to help relieve some of the discomfort. Make sure to speak with a doctor if the symptoms appear to be getting worse, or will not go away.
