Pediatric Viral Infectious Diseases

A virus is a tiny infectious organism that must enter a living cell in order to proliferate. It is much smaller than a fungus or bacterium.

Although viral infections can affect people of all ages, they frequently seem to be more prevalent among babies and young children. The majority of viral infections in children are not serious, although they can cause a variety of conditions like colds, sore throats, vomiting, diarrhoea, and fever with a rash. Due to extensive inoculation, several viral diseases that might cause more severe sickness, such the measles, are now less frequent.

Children and teenagers with viral diseases caused by a variety of viral viruses are regularly treated by doctors. These infections could present in a variety of ways. According to the patient's age and immunocompetence, the clinical signs and symptoms of various diseases differ and are unique to the virus that is causing the infection. Most kids with viral infections recover without any treatment. Fever and bodily pains or discomfort are the most usual symptoms of viral infections.

The majority of viral infections in children are characterised by self-limited sickness that can be managed symptomatically and result in full recovery.

The following are common childhood diseases:

Common cold
Ear infections
Influenza
Bronchitis
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)
Conjunctivitis
