ThumbnailDescription & CreditThumbnailDescription & Credit

After the incubation period of 2-6 days, symptoms of the plague appear including severe malaise, headache, shaking chills, fever, and pain and swelling, or adenopathy, in the affected regional lymph nodes, also known as buboes. Credit: CDC.

Buboes are due to the swelling of lymph nodes after they've absorbed infective material as seen here in a case of plague. Credit: CDC.

The differential diagnosis proved to be chancroid, caused by Haemophilus ducreyi, and not syphilis. Chancroid can cause genital ulcers and/or inguinal buboes in the groin area. Credit: CDC.
