MEASELS


This virus of this disease enters the human body through respiratory tract from where it reaches the blood stream. The person then starts coughing, feels headache and inflammation of the eyes occurs. Spots in the mouth are present for several days before the rash on the skin comes out. The rash consists of pink brownish blotches all over the body that may persist for a week or two. The patient is often very ill but the temperature fails after a few days and by the end of the week the patient feels well again. There is no specific treatment for measels. Any how antibiotics can be taken to prevent  seconday complications.
