Infectious Mononucleosis (IM), also known as glandular fever or mono, is a viral infection commonly caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). This condition primarily affects adolescents and young adults, leading to symptoms such as fever, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, and fatigue. IM is often transmitted through saliva, earning it the nickname "the kissing disease." The onset of IM can be accompanied by significant discomfort and disruption to daily life, making timely recognition and management essential for affected individuals.
