Mumps Symptoms
Mumps symptoms usually include swollen and painful salivary glands, particularly the parotid glands, leading to puffy cheeks and a tender jaw. Fever, headache, muscle aches, fatigue, and loss of appetite often accompany these symptoms. Mumps symptoms generally appear 16-18 days after infection and can last for a few weeks.
