German measles German measles, or more commonly known as rubella, is a childhood illness. German measles is a mild infectious disease in most children and adults, but can cause serious problems for the fetus of pregnant women. When a person gets rubella he will have a mild to high fever, painful red eyes, sore throat and a stuffy nose, swollen lymph glands behind the ears, joint aches and sometimes a rash. Only one half of people with measles get the rash even though most people associate measles with a rash. The rash will be a very light sprinkling of pinkish brown spots. The first place the rash will appear is on the face, then move on down the body to the arms and legs. The rash only lasts about three to seven days and is only slightly itchy. The top layer of the skin will eventually peel, along with the rash, indicating that the bodyOffer(27542) disease is over. If you have joint pain, which is most common in women, it can last for two weeks. German measles are spread through contact with respiratory fluid in sneezes, coughs or left on an object such as a door knob or toy. You will be at risk for getting the measles if you have not been vaccinated against it. The vaccination to prevent the disease is usually given at 15 months of age in the MMR shot for mumps and rubella. If you have already had measles you can not get it again. Once a person has the measles they will be contagious for at least seven days after the first symptoms that appear, which is usually a fever. The next symptom that will appear is red spots in the mouth and then a rash could begin on the rest of the body. A person can be contagious with rubella for five days prior to developing a fever or rash. This is why it is a highly contagious disease; you are contagious before you know you have it.

Additional Information General Description New Jersey Resources Recommended Web Sites Patient Education ... PubMED Search German measles (rubella, 3-day measles) is a contagious viral infection that produces mild symptoms, such as joint pain and a rash. German measles is spread mainly by breathing in small virus-containing droplets of moisture that have been coughed into the air by an infected person. Close contact with an infected person can also spread the infection. A person is contagious from 1 week before the rash appears until 1 week after the rash disappears. An infant infected before birth can be contagious for many months after birth. German measles is less contagious than measles, and many children never become infected. Nevertheless, German measles is serious, especially in pregnant women. A woman infected during the first 16 weeks (particularly the first 8 to 10 weeks) of pregnancy may miscarry, give birth to a stillborn baby, or have a baby with birth defects. About 10 to 15 percent of young adult women have never had German measles, so they could be at risk of having children with serious birth defects if they become infected during early pregnancy.

9. GERMAN MEASLES GERMAN MEASLES. German Measles, also know as Rubella, is a common andvery infectious childhood disease; that is caused by a virus. http://www.stjosham.on.ca/HealthLinks/GERMAN MEASLES.htm

GERMAN MEASLES German Measles, also know as Rubella, is a common and very infectious childhood disease; that is caused by a virus. It is usually a mild disease with no complications. Complications can happen when a pregnant woman gets the measles or when a pregnant woman (who has not had the disease, or who has not been immunized against it) comes in contact with a person infected with German Measles. Contact with an infected person does not mean that they will get the disease but, the disease can cause harm to the fetus or unborn child, and any pregnant woman should see a doctor immediately, if there has been contact. To be contact means being in the same room as anyone with the disease, or anyone who develops the disease within four weeks of that contact. If the disease happens early in the pregnancy, the chance of damage to the unborn baby is high. The usual result is miscarriage, stillbirth and serious congenital defects. The mother should get counselling from her doctor to discuss the pregnancy. The most dangerous time for the baby if the mother gets the disease is during the first sixteen weeks of pregnancy. If she gets the disease later in the pregnancy, the chances of any health problems with the child are much lower.

10. Medinfo: German Measles Or Rubella Easy to understand information for patients on german measles, a mild viral illness caused by the rubella virus. Written by a UK general practitioner. http://www.medinfo.co.uk/conditions/rubella.html

index search health books site map German Measles or Rubella German measles is a mild viral illness caused by the rubella virus. It causes a mild feverish illness associated with a rash, and aches in the joints when it affects adults. The major reason for any attention being devoted to the eradication of this condition is the nasty effects that it has on the unborn baby (known as a fetus), when a pregnant woman catches it in early pregnancy. Symptoms Children are not usually affected too badly, and often the first manifestation is the rash. This is a fine, pink rash spreading from the forehead and face downwards. The rash may last for 1 to 5 days. There are often some of the glands (lymph nodes) enlarged, especially behind the ears and on the back of the head. Adults often feel more unwell before the rash appears, and may have pains in the joints rather like arthritis. Complications Risk Damage to unborn fetus (multiple defects common) 9 out of 10 pregnancies (in the first 8 to 10 weeks) Damage to unborn fetus 1 in 5 to 10 (between 10 and 16 weeks) After 16 weeks damage is rare Bleeding disorders 1 in 3000 Encephalitis 1 in 6000 Causes The cause is the rubella virus. The incubation period, from exposure to the appearance of the rash, is usually 14 to 21 days.

Reddy distinguishes measles, which causes more serious symptoms, from rubella, or german measles, which can be benign. serious symptoms and can do permanent damage, and rubella ("german" measles), which is very benign if you have it as a http://www.drreddy.com/shots/measles.html

Dr. Reddy's Pediatric Office on the Web TM Measles and German Measles There are two "forms" of measles: rubeola (the "ordinary" kind), which causes more serious symptoms and can do permanent damage, and rubella ("German" measles), which is very benign if you have it as a child or an adult but can induce severe birth defects in womem infected early in pregnancy. Aside from some similarity in symptoms, there isn't much in common betwen the two viruses. Rubeola ("ordinary" measles) Measles is a disease which usually produces fever, cough, conjunctivitis ("pink eye", but not quite the same as the "pink eye" seen with colds and earaches), a red, bumpy rash, and a rash ("Koplik's spots") inside the cheeks. It can be complicated by secondary ear infections, diarrhea, croup, and mild pneumonia. In some cases (about 1 out of 1,000) patients with measles develop inflammation of the brain tissue, or "encephalitis". Very rarely, a persistent measles virus infection can produce SSPE, a disease in which nerves and brain tissue degenerate; now that we vaccinate most children against measles, SSPE is almost never seen. Before the vaccine came along, measles epidemics occurred about every 2 years, usually in winter and early spring when unimmune children were together in school, and most measles patients were preschoolers and young elementary-school kids. Nowadays most cases are seen in unvaccinated children (kids younger than 15 months who haven't had the vaccine yet, and preschool kids who should have had the vaccine but haven't) and older children some in college who received one dose of vaccine but did

The Disease Rubella is also called German measles or 3-day measles. When children get it, it is usually a mild disease. Rubella also strikes adults, and outbreaks can occur among teenagers and young adults who have not been immunized. Rubella usually occurs in the winter and spring and spreads very easily. People catch it through contact with other people who are infected. It is spread through coughing, sneezing, or talking.

A Homeopathic Perspective on German Measles (Rubella) (Excepted from Homeopathic Medicine for Children and Infants, Tarcher/Putnam) REMEDIES LISTED IN CAPITOL LETTERS REPRESENT MORE FREQUENTLY INDICATED REMEDIES Children with German measles should stay at home until they are well, both for their own health and because of the serious conse quences of infecting pregnant women with this virus. Aconitum: This remedy is for sudden onset of a rash with a fever. The children are usually very thirsty. Aconitum is only appropriate during the initial stages of this illness. Belladonna: When children experience a sudden onset of high fever with a flushed face and reddened lips, this remedy is the first to consider. These children also tend to have a hot head and cold extremities. Their skin is usually so hot that it radiates heat (you can feel it by placing your hand a couple of inches away from the skin). This fever is a dry heat, without perspiration. These children tend to have a strong and bounding pulse. At night the temperature gets highest, causing the child to be agitated, sometimes delirious, perhaps leading them to see hallucinations when their eyes are closed. Pulsatilla: These children experience chill with their fever. They feel worse in warm rooms and by warmth. They desire open air but need to be properly covered. They are thirstless and have a flushed red face.

German Measles or Rubella What are the symptoms of German measles This viral disease is not as contagious or serious as measles. The incubation period is around 17 to 18 days. It starts like a mild cold with a runny nose, sore throat and a mild temperature. Two days later your child will break out in a rash. Initially, the spots will appear behind the ears and on the forehead before moving down the body. These spots are pale, flat, and more spread out than the ones symptomatic of measles. The rash lasts only for a few days. The glands on the back of the neck will swell up. Do I need to take this disease seriously The symptoms of this disease are so mild that there is no specific treatment. The best you can do is to make sure that your child is comfortable and keep her amused. While you need not be particularly worried about the health of your child, the greatest danger of this disease is that it could result in foetal damage in a pregnant woman. This disease can be prevented by inoculating your child with the MMR vaccine when she is between 12 to 18 months old. This should confer lifelong immunity from the disease.

About Sponsorship Opportunities Questions Comments ... Guide to Medical Care German Measles WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW German measles is a mild infection that is also called Rubella (ru-BELL-uh) or three-day measles. The infection is no longer common because nowadays most children get a rubella shot (immunization) to prevent the disease. Causes Rubella is caused by a virus. It is spread in the air by the coughing and sneezing of an infected person. Signs/Symptoms The hallmark of this infection is a skin rash of tiny, flat or slightly raised, pink-red spots all over the body. Other symptoms are fever, headache, sore eyes, runny nose, cough, sore throat, and swollen glands. The child also may have muscle aches and not want to eat. Rubella can be spread to others from 7 days before the rash starts until 5 days after it first appears. The rash is gone in 3 to 4 days. Care There is no cure for rubella, but acetaminophen will help relieve fever and aches. Keep your child at home and away from pregnant women. WHAT YOU SHOULD DO Do NOT give aspirin if a child with rubella is under 18 years of age. This could lead to brain and liver damage (Reye's syndrome). Be sure to check for aspirin on the label on any over-the-counter medicines you buy.
