Author: Leo Safari

The important thing to know about malaria symptoms is that there is variation in the incubation period of each case. This is the time taken for the signs of the illness to be noticeable after the initial infection.

9 to 14 days is the usual period of incubation but symptoms can also appear from anywhere between 7 days and 10 months. The virus can stay dormant in the body for long.

Causes of delayed manifestation.

The general good health of and body immunity of a person can lengthen the incubation period.

A person may be infected but show no signs because they happen to be on preventive medicine for malaria.

What is important to know is that especially at the onset, what are malaria symptoms may not follow a specific pattern and one should not strictly use the time factor as the basis for diagnosis. The infection could be present, showing little or no symptoms and yet continue to deteriorate because of staying unattended.

Symptoms

-- high fevers

-- feeling cold

-- vomiting and nausea

-- appetite loss

-- headaches

sweats

-- loss of energy

-- jaundice
