Mononucleosis Self-Care

Mononucleosis Self-Care

Mononucleosis self-care includes rest, hydration, and pain management. Avoid strenuous activities to prevent spleen rupture. Gargle saltwater for a sore throat and use over-the-counter medications for fever and pain relief. Maintain good nutrition. Mononucleosis self-care does not require antibiotics, as it is a viral infection, typically caused by the Epstein-Barr virus.
