Overview
A positive history of fever, arthralgia and erythema nodosum are suggestive of coccidioidomycosis. The most common symptoms of coccidioidomycosius include fever with chills, cough, and pleuritic chest pain.[1][2][3][4]
History
The significant information that needs focus in the history of the patient includes
- Any history of travel to the endemic areas
- Any ill contact with similar complaints
Symptoms
Clinical manifestations of Coccidioidomycosis range from subclinical infection to fatal disseminated disease. Symptoms are based on the involvement of organ systems: [1][2][3][4]
