Cytomegalovirus (CMV)
This virus family herpetologist. It can be located not only in those infected with HIVE. But a person with a healthy immune system, it either does not cause any inflammation (of symptoms) or manifest as a mild cold. CMV can be transmitted through semen, cervical secret urine. He very easily transmitted through sexual contact. People with immunodeficiency virus that can cause liver injury (hepatitis), lungs (pneumonia), gastrointestinal tract (colitis), the eye (retinues, often resulting in complete or substantial loss of vision). Because CMV is transmitted through semen and cervical secret and urine, HIVE-positive people must use a condom during any sexual contact penetrating to prevent contamination of this virus.
Not a small role in the prevention of CMV plays a compliance standard of hygiene, including the timely thorough handshaking.

Usually, when the body is struggling with an infection the size of lymph nodes increased some what, particularly in the worst-hit areas of the body. Increased state of lymph nodes may persist up to several weeks.
In the case of HIVE infection, increasing the lymph nodes is observed through 2-6 months after infection, and remains a very long time, because the body can not "win" the infection and is in a position to fight. Sometimes lymph nodes reach a significant size, so that they can be seen.
