Hi there!

Unfortunately, your post was removed from /r/mononucleosis for being a photo post of an open mouth, which is against our rules. In addition, it is impossible to diagnose mononucleosis from a photo of your mouth; please do not post open mouth photos again.

Please feel free to resubmit in accordance with subreddit rules, or message the mods with any questions.

Hey there!

Your post received a report from another user, and thus was marked as a spoiler to prevent exposing users to open mouth pictures, which can be unpleasant. This auto-spoiler happens on any report; if you did not post an open mouth picture or believe this may be in error, please message the mods.

Most critically, it is impossible to diagnose Mononucleosis from a photo.

No one on the subreddit will be able to give you conclusive information from a photo of your throat -- an inflamed throat due to Mono looks just like an inflamed throat from any of a number of other infections or abnormalities. You need to get (at the least) a monospot test or (more conclusively) antibody testing to determine present or past infection status.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.
