What are primary stage symptoms of HIV infected persons?

Primary stage symptoms of HIV infection may develop within 2 to 4 weeks after exposure to the virus. These symptoms can vary from person to person, and some people may only experience mild or flu-like symptoms, while others may have more severe symptoms. Some of the primary stage symptoms of HIV infection may include:

* Fever

* Chills

* Muscle aches

* Fatigue

* Headache

* Sore throat

* Swollen lymph nodes

* Rash

* Mouth ulcers

* Nausea and vomiting

* Diarrhea

It's important to note that not everyone who is infected with HIV will experience primary stage symptoms. Some people may have very mild or no symptoms at all during this stage. However, it's still possible to transmit the virus to others even if you don't have any symptoms. Therefore, if you think you may have been exposed to HIV, it's essential to get tested as soon as possible to know your status and to take appropriate precautions to prevent transmission to others.
