(Your symptoms don't look like that.) ）

2) Cervical and preauricular lymphadenitis: the swelling is not centered on the earlobe, but is confined to the neck or preauricular area, which is a nucleus, hard, with clear edges, obvious tenderness, and superficial activities. Inflammation of the tissues associated with the lymph nodes in the neck or preauricular area, such as angina, ear boils, etc., and an increase in the total number of white blood cells and neutrophils, may be found.

2.Drug 2: early detection of patients, early isolation, isolation period is generally considered to be from the onset of the disease to the complete resolution of the swelling, about 3 weeks.

Due to the low resistance of mumps virus to various physical factors in the outside world, terminal disinfection is not required, but drinking utensils and eating utensils contaminated by patients still need to be boiled and sterilized. Rational use of masks can also be used as an effective way to cut off the route of infection.

3.Drug 3: The ** prescription for such symptoms is:

Parotid gland enlargement is the most common manifestation of salivary gland lesions and is a local sign of systemic disease, which can be unilateral or bilateral, and may be marked by an outward bulge in the area near the earlobe. It is more common in children.

Mumps virus, parainfluenza, measles, respiratory syncytial virus and other viruses belong to the paramyxovirus, ribonucleic acid type, isolated from the saliva of patients in 1934, and successfully infected monkeys and "volunteers". The virus has a diameter of 85 300 nm and an average of 140 nm. It is very sensitive to the effects of physical and chemical factors, and 1% cresol soap solution, 70% ethanol, formaldehyde solution, etc. can inactivate it within 2 5 min, and quickly die when exposed to ultraviolet light.

Its vitality can be maintained for 2 months at 4 hours, 24 hours at 37 hours, and it will lose its vitality after 10 20 minutes when heated to 55 60 hours. It is quite resistant to low temperatures. The virus is found only in humans, but can proliferate in monkeys, chicken embryos, amniotic membranes, and tissue cultures of various humans and monkeys.

The nucleocapsid protein of the mumps virus has a soluble antigen (S antigen) and its outer surface contains neuraminidase and a hemagglutinin glycoprotein with a viral antigen (V antigen). The S antigen and the V antigen each have their own antibodies. S antibodies appear on the 7th day after the onset of illness, reach a peak within 2 weeks, and then gradually decrease, can be maintained for 6 to 12 months, can be measured by complement fixation method, digging S antibody is not protective.

If an abscess is formed, the soft tissues in the parotid area often appear depressed edema.

Patients with chronic suppurative parotitis often have a history of acute attacks and mild symptoms.

3. Erythrophilic lymphatic intrabudoma. It is more common in men, and in addition to parotid gland enlargement, it can sometimes occur in the lower upper arm or upper thigh. The lump grows slowly and is usually soft rubbery in the early stages.

There is often mild itching in the lump area**, which can cause thickening, pigmentation, dryness and roughness in the affected area** due to frequent scratching. Peripheral blood routine shows an increase in eosinophils.
