Mumps is spread from person to person by droplets sprayed from the respiratory tract of infected persons, and it is highly contagious. The incubation period of the disease varies from 15 to 21 days.
Healthgrades Editorial Staff. Mumps is an infectious disease caused by a virus that typically leads to painful swelling of the salivary glands in front of and below the ears. Mumps typically occurs in children between the ages of two and 12 years who were not vaccinated against mumps. Mumps may also cause flu-like symptoms, such as fatigue, fever, sore throat, headache, cough, and aches and pains; and these symptoms typically develop first, before salivary gland swelling is apparent.
