ABOUT US Healthcommunities.com Pressroom Testimonials
Warts, or verrucae (singular: verruca), are benign growths on the skin or mucous membranes that cause cosmetic problems as well as pain and discomfort. They are seen on people of all ages but most commonly appear in children and teenagers. The incubation period of a wart is 2 to 9 months following infection with the human papilloma virus (HPV), during which time an excessive proliferation of skin growth slowly devleops. Fortunately, more than 50 percent of them disappear on their own within two years. Causes More than 80 different types of HPV have been identified, and they have tropism (affinity) for different types of body tissue. Most types of HPV have an affinity for the skin and produce common warts (verruca vulgaris), flat warts (verruca plana), and plantar or foot warts (verruca plantaris). Several other types of HPV have an affinity for mucous membranes and some of these cause ano-genital warts (condyloma acuminata).

Viral infection What is a viral infection? Viral infections are caused by viruses, which are microscopic germs and are quite different to the larger bacteria germs. They look like tiny crystals under the microscope. They are the commonest cause of infection, but are usually not serious. We eventually get over the infection simply by resting and looking after any troublesome symptoms. What are examples of viral infections? They usually cause upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) such as the common cold and pharyngitis (sore throat). Other examples are influenza, gastroenteritis (especially in children), measles, rubella, mumps, chickenpox, glandular fever and cold sores. What are the typical features?
  • The illnesses are bothersome, but usually not serious. Symptoms include feeling unwell, fever, aches and pains (including headache). The illness is 'self-limiting'; that is, it gets better naturally. The body builds a defence by producing antiviral antibodies. Normal routine antibiotics have no effect on the outcome. Serious complications are rare, but dehydration can be a special problem in children and we have to watch out for encephalitis (inflammation of the brain) with some, such as mumps and measles.

Viral Infections in Children
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
There are many kinds of viruses. Colds, flu, measles, and many other diseases are all viral infections. Some infections can become serious. Others just make a child not feel well.
Signs/Symptoms
Symptoms differ from virus to virus. Often, however, the child may have a fever, headache, sore muscles, vomiting, or a runny nose. Other signs may be cough, sore throat, belly ache, or a tired feeling.
WHAT YOU SHOULD DO
  • Encourage as much rest as possible while the child has a fever.
  • For children younger than 4 years who cannot blow their noses:
    • Use a rubber suction bulb to suck drainage from both sides of the nose. This is especially important for infants (up to 6 months old) since they breathe mostly through their nose.
    • To loosen dried nasal drainage: Put 2 to 3 drops of warm water in each nostril using a moist cotton ball. Wait about 1 minute and gently suction out each nostril.
  • Use a cold mist humidifier to keep the air moist and the nasal drainage loose.

Viral Infections
A viral infection (cold), the most common cause of sinusitis, may be caused by hundreds of different strains of viruses. About half the time, a cold begins with a scratchy or sore throat. Over the next day or two, other symptoms like nasal congestion, a runny nose, and sometimes facial pain or pressure develop. Increased postnasal drainage may also cause a cough. Asthma sufferers may experience a worsening of asthma symptoms after the onset of a cold.
There is still no cure for the common cold, but there may soon be a drug available that will shorten its duration and reduce the severity of symptoms. In the meantime, if you catch a cold, expect symptoms to improve after five or seven days, and be aware that it may take up to three weeks for thick mucus drainage to resolve. Using a topical decongestant nasal spray for a few days during a cold can help relieve symptoms. It is important to drink plenty of fluids and get lots of rest.
About 20% of colds in children and about 1 to 2% of colds in adults become complicated by bacterial infection. Because more than 80% of cold patients have sinus swelling that is identical to the swelling seen in bacterial sinusitis, a sinus CT scan will not distinguish between the two conditions. If you have been scheduled for a sinus CT scan, your doctor may cancel it if you develop a cold.

Chemotherapy of Viral Infections
Erik De Clercq
General Concepts
Basic Mechanisms
Antiviral drugs specifically inhibit one or more steps of virus replication without causing unacceptable side effects.
Approved Antiviral Drugs
The approved antiviral drugs and the viruses and diseases they treat are amantadine and rimantadine (influenza A virus), ribavirin (respiratory syncytial virus), idoxuridine and trifluridine (topical treatment of herpetic keratitis), vidarabine and acyclovir (systemic treatment of herpes simplex virus and varicella-zoster virus infections), famciclovir and valaciclovir (oral treatment of varicella-zoster virus infections), ganciclovir and foscarnet (cytomegalovirus), and zidovudine, didanosine, zalcitabine and stavudine (human immunodeficiency virus).
Future Antiviral Drugs
To overcome the limitations of current antiviral drugs, more effective compounds are being developed that allow greater inhibition of viruses, greater selectivity for virus-specific functions, and fewer side effects, and may avoid emergence of resistant mutants.
Main Targets for Antiviral Drugs
Specific events in virus replication identified as targets for antiviral agents are viral adsorption, penetration, uncoating, and viral nucleic acid synthesis as well as viral protein synthesis. Specificity for infected cells may occur when virus-specified enzymes (e.g., thymidine kinase-induced by herpes simplex virus or varicella-zoster virus) activate drugs (e.g., acyclovir).

Persistent Viral Infections
Istvan Boldogh
Thomas Albrecht
David D. Porter
General Concepts
Definition
Persistent infections are characterized as those in which the virus is not cleared but remains in specific cells of infected individuals. Persistent infections may involve stages of both silent and productive infection without rapidly killing or even producing excessive damage of the host cells. There are three types of overlapping persistent virus-host interaction that may be defined as latent, chronic and slow infection.
Pathogenesis
The mechanisms by which persistent infections are maintained involve both modulation of virus and cellular gene expression and modification of the host immune response. Reactivation of a latent infection may be triggered by various stimuli, including changes in cell physiology, superinfection by another virus, and physical stress or trauma. Host immunosuppression is often associated with reactivation of a number of persistent virus infections.
Persistent Infections by Organ System
Some viruses can establish persistent infection at the same time in different cell types of one or more tissues or organs. For example, the primary site for latency of cytomegalovirus is thought to be peripheral blood monocytes, but the virus may induce disease and can be detected in cells of several organs (e.g., kidney, lung, and those of the digestive or central nervous system). Table-1 categorizes selected human viruses by organ systems in which the virus is believed to be primarily persistent.

... Solutions A to Z Viral Infections, Intestinal
The sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting and abdominal pain usually means a child has contracted an intestinal infection, or gastroenteritis, which is most often caused by a virus. Intestinal viruses are highly contagious. They can be transmitted through direct contact, water or food. Outbreaks are most common in overcrowded situations with poor hygiene, but they can occur in any school or day-care setting. WHAT HAPPENS DURING AN INTESTINAL VIRAL INFECTION?
After entering the body (usually through the mouth), the virus multiplies and penetrates the intestines. Viral particles affect the surface layer of cells lining the intestine. Damage to these cells interferes with digestion and causes intestinal upset, which resolves once the virus leaves the body. WHEN SHOULD I SUSPECT THAT MY CHILD HAS AN INTESTINAL VIRAL INFECTION?
While bacterial and parasitic infections tend to start with diarrhea , the first symptom of infection with an intestinal virus is generally vomiting IS MEDICAL ATTENTION NECESSARY?
