Overview
Monkeypox is usually a self-limited disease with the symptoms resolving within 2 to 4 weeks. Complications are rare. They include secondary bacterial infection such as pneumonia, sepsis, encephalitis, corneal inflammation of the eyes[1][2][3], and conjunctivitis[4].
Complications
The complications of monkeypox are rare.
- Common complications include secondary bacterial infection such as pneumonia, sepsis, encephalitis, corneal inflammation of the eyes[1][2][3], and conjunctivitis[4].
- Recent reported complications included painful proctitis, tonsillitis, penile edema, and skin abscesses[5].
Prognosis
Uncomplicated cases resolve within 2 to 4 weeks. Complications may lead to death. Most reported deaths were among children, and HIV patients[6][7][8].
