HIV is one of the primer killer diseases in Africa and all over the world. If you know its early symptoms, you can get timely treatment and stop spreading the epidemic!


here lists 10 early symptoms of HIV every person should be aware of:

1. Sore throat

Surely all on its own this sign does not tell you to have HIV. However, in combination with the below-listed ones it should set an alarm and move you to take the HIV test. Soreness in the throat may precede fever.

2. Fever

It’s a common symptom for all kinds of infections, both viral and bacterial. However, if you got HIV, the fever may last up to 4 weeks, then disappear and reemerge later on for the same period. 77+ percent of all the patients who were diagnosed with early HIV symptoms had a lasting fever.


3. Rashes

As well as other skin problems they may indicate HIV infection. This virus affects the whole body and gets those reactions from all organs, including the skin. So, in a combination with ongoing fever and sore throat, it should alarm you and motivate to take the test.

4. Night sweats

These have nothing to do with just feeling hot. People with HIV sweats have extreme experiences. Their clothes drench and even the bed linens get all wet. Many a time person wakes up and has to change before they can go back to sleep.


5. Lymph nodes’ swelling

Since HIV affects the immune system of the body the most, it may evoke the enlargement of the immune system organs – the lymph nodes. Over half of the patients with early HIV symptoms had it.

6. Joint and muscle pain

This pain may last up to 24 hours. The fits go away and start all over.

7. Headaches

They may not be attached to any other disease. These primary headaches lead to the low quality of life of a person with HIV.

8. Diarrhea

The stomach also reacts to the infection by constant problems and diarrhea.


9. Tiredness

The sense of weakness and fatigue exhausts your energy and makes you feel unable to cope with life.

10. Vomiting

This is how your body reacts to the attack of the virus and lets you know of it.

Hmmmm

some people out there have really lost the plot....shouldnt WEARING A CONDOM be the only thing to be aware of?!

Depends on the Individual. You can have HIV for years without showing any of these symptoms. So, Getting tested remains the best way to know ur HIV status.

Where is the best place in terms of affordability and reliability to get a comprehensive test for hiv and other stds in Lagos

The symptoms mentioned are also symptoms to other infections aside HIV. The best thing is getting tested .

Buhari is HIV-positive. This is the reason they are not telling anyone what is wrong with him.

I agree with you perfectly.

With my little experience with RVD clients, a lot of married ones (both male and female) conceal their status from their spouses.
Majority do this out of fear while others want to infect their partners deliberately.
Some of them are even reading this post ...
People are WICKED...

Thank God I no get any symptoms. Only that am not sure of the guy below me

All these rubbishes are plainly unnecessary, abstinence is the key, free from fornication and adultery.

If you are hyperactive sexually, then make sure you wear protection. Avoid unsterilized sharp objects like plague.

Finally HIV test is Important regularly for early detection and treatment.

HIV positive doesn't mean one is damned to die, a good habit and treatment can keep you alive for a long time...


OP be very careful before you even send healthy people panicking...

Cool
