Monkeypox (Mpox)
Practice Resources
Monkeypox
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is closely tracking cases of monkeypox recently detected in the U.S.
Follow the recommended prevention steps and get
vaccinated
if you were exposed to monkeypox or are at higher risk of being exposed to monkeypox.
CDC urges healthcare providers in the U.S. to be alert for patients who have rash illnesses
consistent with monkeypox
.
CDC is learning that a large number of persons presently affected are experiencing anogenital lesions (>70%) as well as mucosal lesions (>40%), which can be anogenital (>65%) or oral (>20%). Clinical providers indicate that these lesions - especially oral, genital, and anal mucosal lesions that may not be overtly visible on initial physical exam - are associated with pain out of proportion to expectation based on clinical experience with sexually transmitted diseases in the same anatomic areas.
