What are the symptoms and causes of rubella virus infection in pregnant women?

If a pregnant woman is infected with the rubella virus, she may experience symptoms such as fever, sore throat, enlarged cervical lymph nodes, and rash. This situation is often considered to be caused by close contact with someone infected with the rubella virus, and it is necessary to actively cooperate with the doctor for treatment.

After a pregnant woman is infected with the rubella virus, it may stimulate the immune system, resulting in abnormal temperature regulation and fever symptoms. Generally, the body temperature may rise to 38℃, and a small number of patients may have a body temperature above 39℃.

The rubella virus is mainly transmitted through respiratory secretions. Under the stimulation of the virus, it may lead to symptoms such as congestion, edema, and pain in the mucosal lining of the throat.

If timely and effective treatment is not obtained for a long time, it may lead to rapid reproduction of the virus in the cervical lymphatic system, resulting in enlarged cervical lymph nodes.

After the above symptoms appear, it may lead to the appearance of rashes on the head and face within a short period of time. The rash may appear all over the body within one day, and the fever and rash may subside after 2 to 5 days. In addition, conjunctivitis symptoms may also occur, mainly manifesting as eye pain, redness, and swelling. It is recommended that patients go to a formal hospital for examination and treatment to avoid delaying the condition.
