Overview
Natural History
Viral Parotitis
- Mumps, the viral cause for parotitis, will incubate for 15 to 24 days before symptoms manifest in an infected individual.[1]
- Parotitis will gradually develop over 2-3 days after mumps symptoms manifest, usually remaining for 7 days.[1]
- Parotitis will usually resolve itself without treatment within 10 days of manifestation.[2]
Recurrent parotitis
- Juvenile recurrent parotitis usually manifests in children around 5 years old, but children from 3 months to 16 years old have been reported to begin experiencing symptoms as well.[3]
- Parotitis occurrences usually last between 3 and 7 days, rarely persisting for up to 2-3 weeks at a time.[3]
- Recurrent parotitis is usually self-limited, usually subsiding between the ages 10-15 and resolved by age 22.[3][4]
- More severe cases may not resolve themselves and require more intensive intervention, such as parotidectomy.[5]
Complications
Complications from parotitis
Prognosis
Most parotid gland infections go away on their own or are cured with treatment. Some infections will return. Complications are not common, but they may occur.
