Virus Related Colds

Coxsackieviruses are rna viruses that may cause hand, foot, and mouth disease (hfmd), as well as disease of muscles, lungs, and heart. Coxsackievirus is a member of the picornaviridae family of viruses in the genus termed enterovirus. Coxsackieviruses are subtype members of enterovirus that have a single strand of ribonucleic acid (rna) for its genetic material. The enteroviruses are also referred to as picornaviruses (pico means "small," so "small rna viruses")

SYMPTOMS

Abdominal pain (causes, remedies, treatment), acetaminophen, aches, pain, fever, diphenhydramine, encephalitis and meningitis, enterovirus (non-polio enterovirus infection), hand-foot-and-mouth disease in mouth, hand-foot-and-mouth syndrome.

CAUSES

Most coxsackievirus infections are mild and may not even cause symptoms. The virus is one cause of the common cold or a generalized mildly erythematous (red) rash, especially seen in the summer months. It may also cause diarrhea or a sore throat that is similar to strep throat.
