symptoms of monkeypox.

People with monkeypox may develop a rash above or near the genital organs (pitched, testicular, sinus, vaginal) or anus (anus), and other areas such as hands, feet, chest, face, or mouth.

The rash goes through several stages, including scabbing, before it heals.

Other symptoms of monkeypox include.

Heat
chills
swollen lymph nodes
Fatigue
muscle pain and back pain
a headache
Respiratory symptoms (e.g., sore throat, stuffy nose or cough)
All or only some of the symptoms may appear.

Sometimes people show flu-like symptoms before a rash appears.
Some people have different symptoms after the rash appears first.

Others only experience a rash.

How long do monkeypox symptoms last?

Monkeypox symptoms usually begin within three weeks of exposure to the virus. People with flu-like symptoms usually develop a rash one to four days later.

Monkeypox can spread from the onset of symptoms until the rash heals and all scabs fall and a new layer of skin is formed. Diseases typically last for 2-4 weeks.

a way of spreading.

Monkeypox spreads in several ways.

Monkeypox is close and personal, and can often spread to anyone through skin-to-skin contact. This includes.
Monkeypox rash, scabies, or direct contact with body fluids of monkeypox patients.
The act of touching objects, fabrics (clothes, bedding, or towels) and surfaces used by a person caught in monkeypox.
contact with respiratory secretions.
This direct contact can occur during intimate contact, including.
The act of touching the genitals (pituitary, testicular, penile, and vaginal) or anus (dunghole) of a person with oral, anal and vaginal dysphagia or monkeypox.
Hugs, massages, kisses.
long-term face-to-face contact.
The act of touching unsterilized cloths and objects during sexual intercourse that have been used by people with monkeypox, such as bedding, towels, fetish supplies, sex toys, etc.
Pregnant women can spread the virus to the fetus through the placenta.
It is also possible for humans to get monkeypox from infected animals by being scratched or bitten by animals or by preparing meat, eating, or using products from infected animals.

People with monkeypox can spread it to others from the onset of symptoms until the rash fully heals and forms a new layer of skin. Diseases typically last for two to four weeks.

Scientists are still working on the following.

If someone with no symptoms can spread the virus
The frequency with which monkeypox spreads through respiratory secretions or when a person with monkeypox symptoms is more likely to spread the virus through respiratory secretions.
Whether monkeypox can spread through semen, vaginal fluid, urine, or feces.
