How long brucellosis get chronic?

Brucellosis can become chronic in some individuals, with symptoms persisting for months or even years after the initial infection. While acute brucellosis typically resolves within a few weeks with appropriate treatment, chronic cases may occur in about 5-10% of patients, leading to ongoing symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, and fever. Factors such as delayed treatment and individual immune response can influence the duration of the disease. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for preventing chronic complications.
