AIDS: This is variable and will depend upon the particular infection or malignancy that appears.

Thus, the general recommendation is if you are concerned about hiv/aids, get tested.

Question 9

what are symptoms of aids, if it is a subtle or mild case?

Accepted Answer

Often no symptoms: The symptoms of HIV infection in a subtle or mild case is usually nothing.  This is why many people don't find out that they have HIV until after many years.  However, as the immune system gets worse over time, the person may develop symptoms, like fevers, night sweats, weight loss, or enlarged lymph nodes.  Untreated HIV infection can lead to aids, which is associated with a poor immune system.

Question 10

what are the symptoms of aids in adults compared to in young children?

Accepted Answer

AIDS symptoms: There are no specific symptoms typical of aids.  Outside of acute HIV syndrome, which has several ways of presenting, some of which are like infectious mononucleosis, the disease remains silent until the immune system has been damaged enough so that opportunistic infections appear.  The same thing applies to children and adults.
