Zika Virus and its symptoms

 The most common symptoms of Zika virus infection are exanthema (skin rash) and mild fever, usually accompanied by conjunctivitis, muscle or joint pain, and general malaise that begins 2-7 days after the bite of an infected mosquito. One out of four infected people develops symptoms of the disease.

The Zika virus has been confirmed to have entered the United States. The mosquito-borne disease was reportedly brought into the country from Latin America, causing widespread panic.
KVUE reported that the virus was confirmed in a Harris County, Texas traveler who came back from Latin America. The disease is carried by the Aedes species of mosquitoes. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Zika outbreaks occurred in parts of Southeast Asia, South America, Africa and the Pacific Islands.

CBS reported that the first identified case of Zika virus in the Americas was less than two years ago. The first local case was in Brazil in May 2015. According to health officials, about 440,000 to 1.3 million people in Brazil had the illness. There were also several cases in Mexico in November 2015, followed by Puerto Rico in December. There are no reported cases of locally transmitted Zika in the United States yet, although there are reports of affected returning travelers. Vox wrote that officials speculate that the virus might follow the same pattern as the dengue spread in the United States. The starting point will be in Puerto Rico, and then there will be outbreaks in Florida, Gulf Coast states and possibly Hawaii.
The disease already triggered panic in Brazil due to babies born with microcephaly. Microcephaly is a condition where babies are born with smaller heads than average, which usually causes mental retardation. Affected patients usually present symptoms like joint pain, fever, rash and conjunctivitis. Some cases can be severe, and require hospitalization. The Ministry of Health in Brazil cited that microcephaly cases have grown 10 times more than the yearly average. Newsweek cited that mothers who delivered babies with microcephaly reported having an illness similar to Zika early in their pregnancy. The link between Zika and microcephaly is still under investigation, since some babies with the condition tested positive for the virus while others were negative. Brazilian health officials already asked women in affected areas to delay pregnancies until further investigation can be completed.
CDC also asked pregnant women to take extra caution to prevent mosquito bites when traveling to Brazil or Latin America. Most patients will only experience mild symptoms, lasting for several days to one week. Deaths are rare. Currently, there is no cure for Zika virus, prevention is key to reducing the risk. Individuals who notice symptoms should approach a healthcare provider immediately.

How to Talk to Your Doctor

When you're at the doctor's office, it's important to speak up to make sure all your health questions and concerns are addressed. Here's how to make the most of any medical office visit.

Tell your doctor what happened.
Start from the beginning and describe your symptoms, how you treated them, and what’s happened since. If the details are complicated, it helps to write down your account. It’s especially important to describe any medical treatment or tests you’ve had. If possible, bring copies of your records, including test results, from any previous doctors.
Be honest..
Your doctor needs to know everything, so don’t hold back because you’re embarrassed or afraid someone might find out. Your health information is private and protected by patient-doctor confidentiality.


Take notes and take your time.
Your doctor might overwhelm you with a lot of information, so don’t be shy about asking questions and writing things down. I usually end visits by asking my patients if they have any questions or if there’s anything else they’d like to discuss. If you feel that your doctor is rushing out the door, there’s often a nurse or medical assistant in the office who can answer routine questions. Sometimes patients phone my office with additional questions that they forgot to ask; our policy is to respond within a day or so. However, some situations may require a follow-up visit or further evaluation, so be prepared to go back to the doctor if necessary.

Enlarged Heart Symptoms

Definition

By Mayo Clinic staff
Enlarged heart (cardiomegaly) isn't a disease, but rather a symptom of another condition.
The term "cardiomegaly" most commonly refers to an enlarged heart seen on chest X-ray before other tests are performed to diagnose the specific condition causing your cardiomegaly. You may develop an enlarged heart temporarily because of a stress on your body, such as pregnancy, or because of a medical condition, such as the weakening of the heart muscle, coronary artery disease, heart valve problems or abnormal heart rhythms.
While having an enlarged heart may not always be preventable, it's usually treatable. Treatment for enlarged heart is aimed at correcting the underlying cause. Treatment for an enlarged heart can include medications, medical procedures or surgery.

Symptom Checker: Symptoms & Signs Index

Medical Author: Melissa Conrad Stöppler, MD

An enlarged heart is medically known as cardiomegaly. Cardiomegaly can be caused by a number of different conditions, including diseases of the heart muscle or heart valves, high blood pressure, arrhythmias, and pulmonary hypertension. Cardiomegaly can also sometimes accompany longstanding anemia and thyroid diseases, among other conditions. Infiltrative diseases of the heart, for example, in which abnormal proteins (amyloidosis) or excess iron (hemochromatosis) accumulate within the tissues of the heart, can also cause an enlargement of the heart. Infections, nutritional deficiencies, toxins (such as alcohol or drugs), and some medications have been associated with cardiomegaly. In some situations (for example, pregnancy) there can be a temporary increased demand on the heart, resulting in some temporary enlargement.
It is important to remember that an enlarged heart is not a disease itself but a physical sign that can accompany many diseases and conditions. Not all of the associated conditions listed below, however, will always result in cardiomegaly. Treatment and prognosis are dependent upon the underlying cause.
Cardiomyopathy is a related term that refers to damage to the heart muscle. Cardiomyopathies are often accompanied by cardiomegaly.
