HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR RUBELLA OR GERMAN MEASLES
Rubella, also called German measles or three-day
measles, is a contagious viral infection best known by its distinctive red
rash.
Rubella is not the same as measles (rubeola), though
the two illnesses do share some characteristics, including the red rash.
However, rubella is caused by a different virus than measles, and is neither as
infectious nor usually as severe as measles.
Cause-
The cause of rubella is a virus that's passed from person
to person. It can spread when an infected person coughs or sneezes, or it can
spread by direct contact with an infected person's respiratory secretions, such
as mucus. It can also be transmitted from a pregnant woman to her unborn child
via the bloodstream.
A person with rubella is contagious from 10 days
before the onset of the rash until about one or two weeks after the rash
disappears. An infected person can spread the illness before the person realizes he or she has it.
Symptoms-The signs and
symptoms of rubella are often so mild they're difficult to notice, especially
in children. If signs and symptoms do occur, they generally appear between two
and three weeks after exposure to the virus.
They typically
last about two to three days and may include:Mild fever of 102 F (38.9 C) or
lower, Headache, Stuffy or runny nose, Inflamed, red eyes, Enlarged, tender
lymph nodes at the base of the skull, the back of the neck and behind the ears,
A fine, pink rash that begins on the face and quickly spreads to the trunk and
then the arms and legs, before disappearing in the same sequence, Aching
joints, especially in young women
