Leg pain could be early norovirus warning sign

Leg pain could be early norovirus warning sign

Norovirus isn't just a winter illness — it spreads all year round and can cause leg pain alongside the usual sickness and diarrhoea. According to health authorities, individuals should avoid attending work, school, and healthcare facilities for two days following the cessation of symptoms to prevent its transmission. Viral symptoms typically emerge within a window of 12 to 48 hours following infection, and alcohol-based hand sanitizer offers no protective advantages.
