- Chills
- General ill feeling (malaise)
- High fever
- Muscle pain
- Severe headache
- Seizures
- Smooth, painful lymph gland swelling called a bubo
- Commonly found in the groin, but may occur in the armpits or neck, most often at the site of the initial infection (bite or scratch)
- Pain may occur in the area before the swelling appears
