Specializes in Family Medicine

Up to 7 days: According to the CDC, the Zika virus can cause mild symptoms for up to a week. Be sure your doc has reported your case to the State Department of Health. If you have symptoms for more than 7 days see your doc for further evaluation. You may have another type of infection going on. See this page: https://www.cdc.gov/zika/symptoms/symptoms.html
