A member asked:

If i suffer mono from ebv, will the lymph nodes throughout my body from head to toe get inflamed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe/not: The individual response to EBV will very from person to person & within that person by the age when they are infected. It tends to be milder in infancy/childhood & more intense in the teen years or later. More than half will have had it in childhood when it was ignored as a common virus. In teens/adults it is often debilitating for 3+ wks with large tonsils/nodes & sometimes the spleen.
