Here’s The Truth Behind This Scar On People’s Upper Left Arm

  • Close, prolonged face-to-face contact through respiratory droplets.

  • Direct contact with skin lesions or bodily fluids of an infected person.

  • Contact with contaminated objects such as bedding, clothing, or surfaces.

  • Intimate physical contact, including hugging,

    kissing, or sexual contact.

    Unlike COVID-19, monkeypox does not spread as easily. People are typically considered contagious only when symptoms appear.

    What Are the Symptoms of Monkeypox?

    Monkeypox symptoms generally appear 5 to 21 days after exposure and develop in two stages:

    1. Early Symptoms (Similar to Flu-like Symptoms):

      • Fever

      • Headache

      • Muscle aches

      • Back pain

      • Chills

      • Fatigue

      • Swollen lymph nodes (a key symptom distinguishing monkeypox from smallpox)

    2. Rash Phase:

      • A rash develops within a few days after fever and often:

        • Starts on the face and spreads to the body

        • Appears on the palms and soles

        • Progresses through stages: spots → bumps → blisters → pustules → scabs

        • Can be painful or itchy

      The illness typically lasts 2 to 4 weeks. Most people recover fully, but monkeypox can be more serious for children, older adults, and those with weakened immune systems.
