What Are the Early Symptoms of AIDS?
Disease description:
I’ve seen many brochures on HIV prevention. I’d like to ask the doctor: What are the early symptoms—or “warning signs”—of HIV infection?

Dr. Chen Dongfeng
Hello, HIV/AIDS is a common sexually transmitted infection. In its early stage, the disease typically presents no characteristic symptoms; instead, patients often develop flu-like symptoms following infection—such as fever, chills, muscle aches, joint pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea—and these symptoms may persist for an extended period. Most patients experience only mild clinical symptoms, which usually resolve spontaneously within 1–3 weeks. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a happy and healthy life!
