The signs and symptoms of mumps are: # Fever. # Swollen cheeks (on the face I mean lol). # Tiredness. # Headache. # Sore throat. # Loss of appetite. # Nausea.

If you notice swelling of the testicles (if you are a man obviously), you have got to see a doctor soon (even if you do not think its mumps).
Loratadine is an antihistamine primarily used to relieve allergy symptoms and does not treat viral infections like mumps. Mumps is caused by a virus, and its treatment typically focuses on relieving symptoms, such as fever and pain, rather than using antihistamines. Therefore, loratadine is not effective for managing mumps. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for appropriate care and management of mumps.
Initial symptoms include chills, headache, loss of appetite, and a lack of energy.
Mumps is, among other symptoms, inflammation of the parotid glands. These salivary glands are found on either cheek.

No, mumps is not an autoimmune disorder; it is a viral infection caused by the mumps virus. It primarily affects the salivary glands, leading to symptoms like swelling, fever, and headache.

Mumps is caused by a viral infection and can affect individuals of any age, especially those who are not vaccinated or have not previously had the disease.

§ A diet for mumps should ideally include plenty of water, fruit juices, soups and broths. However, citrus fruits tend to aggravate symptoms of mumps. It is thus best to avoid citrus fruits if you are suffering from mumps. § Moreover, citrus fruits contribute to the production of acidity and should thus be excluded from a mumps healing diet. However, vitamin C is a necessary component for a mumps diet and citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C. You should therefore include foods like cantaloupes and mangoes to compensate for vitamin C in a mumps healing diet. The fluid diet should be followed with a soft diet that is easy to chew and swallow. Swelling and throat irritation are mumps symptoms that take some time to recede. Thus, a soft diet should be maintained for a few days after a fluid diet. A soft diet includes foods like rice porridge and runny oatmeal. Such foods are easy to swallow and easy to digest. Avoid meat in a mumps healing diet as this is very difficult to digest and swallow. You should also avoid processed foods in a diet for treating mumps as such foods are not only difficult to digest, but are filled with additives that may be potentially harmful at time when your immunity is compromised. In addition, oily and fatty foods tend to aggravate mumps symptoms. Avoid all oily foods while caring for mumps symptoms. Certain spices are very beneficial in a mumps treatment diet. Spices like black pepper help alleviate symptoms of mumps. Ginger and garlic are also very effective in the treatment of mumps. Include generous quantities of garlic and ginger in a mumps healing diet.
