Coccidioido-mycosis:
Signs and symptoms
(Handbook of Diseases)
Chronic pulmonary cavitation can occur with both the primary and the disseminated forms of coccidioidomycosis, causing hemoptysis with or without chest pain. Other signs and symptoms vary with the form of the disease.
Primary coccidioidomycosis
Acute or subacute respiratory signs and symptoms (dry cough, pleuritic chest pain, pleural effusion), fever, sore throat, chills, malaise, headache, and an itchy macular rash usually accompany the primary form of the disease. Occasionally, the sole indication is a fever that persists for weeks. From 3 days to several weeks after onset, some patients, particularly white women, may develop tender red nodules (erythema nodosum) on their legs, especially the shins, with joint pain in the knees and ankles. Generally, the primary form heals spontaneously within a few weeks.
Disseminated coccidioidomycosis
In rare cases, coccidioidomycosis spreads to other organs several weeks or months after the primary infection. Disseminated coccidioidomycosis causes fever and abscesses throughout the body, especially in skeletal, central nervous system (CNS), splenic, hepatic, renal, and subcutaneous tissues. Depending on the location of these abscesses, disseminated coccidioidomycosis may cause bone pain and meningitis.
