How is Epstein-Barr virus treated?

Patient's question:

How is EB virus treated?
Please ask the doctor. The child has had this condition for a long time, and I am very worried, afraid it will become serious. Please give the doctor's advice.

Doctor's answer:

There is no particularly good method; mainly antiviral treatment and symptomatic management. EB virus is not a new virus; it has long been discovered, and its pathogenic spectrum has been studied. EB virus belongs to the Herpesviridae family, which includes two types: type A and type B. Its genome is a linear double-stranded DNA molecule. This virus can cause a variety of diseases. Currently, there is no targeted treatment available, and most infections can resolve on their own.
