Symptoms of HIV AND AIDS
Initial infection with the HIV virus may produce no symptoms or may produce mild, transient symptoms, such as sore throat, fever, rash and swollen lymph nodes. As the disease progresses, and the immune system become more compromised, fatigue, unexplained weight loss, night sweats and swollen lymph glands may occur. Further damage to the immune system leads to skin infections, skin cancers, mouth sores, chronic diarrhea and recurrent cough or pneumonia. Diffuse lumps in the neck, armpit and groin may be found and there is often chronic fever. Confusion, dementia and even coma may occur.
