Can malaria symptoms come back every year?
Malaria may recur. Some varieties of the malaria parasite, which typically cause milder forms of the disease, can persist for years and cause relapses.

For most people, symptoms begin 10 days to after infection, although a person may feel ill as early as 7 to 9 days.
Because the malaria parasite is found in the red blood cells of an infected person, malaria can also be transmitted through blood transfusion, organ transplant, or the shared use of needles or syringes contaminated with blood.
The difference between the two is that malaria is caused by a parasite and not a virus or bacteria. Bacteria are microorganisms that cause fever and diseases.
Malaria is treated with prescription drugs to kill the parasite. It is prevented by applying mosquito-repellant creams and avoiding areas that are prone to malaria infection zones.
Antimalarial drugs include artemisinin drugs (artemether and artesunate). The best treatment for Plasmodium falciparum malaria, if available, is artemisinin combination therapy along with drinking plenty of fluids.
