Overview
The most common symptoms of mumps are a prodrome with low grade fever, myalgia, anorexia, malaise, and headache, followed by painful, bilateral parotitis. Less common symptoms include orchitis in post-pubertal males, oophoritis or mastitis in post-pubertal females, encephalitis, and transient sensorineural hearing loss. Approximately 15-20% of patients may be asymptomatic.
