9.What are some major complications which may occur if condition is misdiagnosed or goes undiagnosed not treated properly? (see links)
Answer:
A majority of infants and young people often develop this mononucleosis viral infection i.e. the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and some major complications which may occur if condition is misdiagnosed or goes undiagnosed not treated properly are prevailing entire skin followed by swollen lymph node, night sweats, fever and strep throat. This is because a diagnosis for this virus is based on presence of blood heterophile antibodies but these may not be detected in children and youngsters even they are produced minimally under viral infection so that infection may prevail due to improper diagnosis

Answer:
Strep throat is mainly due to bacterial infection so that anti-bacterial antibiotics must be given whereas mononucleosis is mainly due to viral infection so that anti-viral agents must be given for 4 weeks
