Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a 15 week old baby who has been exposed to people that were visiting a patient suffering from mumps; one of them ,her Dad who holds her and spends time with her, has been experiencing pain when swallowing for a few days.
Is my baby at risk of getting mumps too?
If yes, how can i dictate the symptoms early and what can i do to avoid her getting infected?
