    \n
  • Dengue should be suspected when you have sudden onset of high grade fever with severe headache, pain behind the eyes, abdominal pain, body aches, rash and vomiting. The fever can lasts for 5-7 days<\/li>\n
  • Dengue is diagnosed by a blood test called Dengue Specific Antigen DS-1 (with or without Dengue Antibodies) and complete blood count (CBC) including platelet count<\/li>\n
  • Most patients with dengue fever will not require hospitalization and recover fully in 10-12 days<\/li>\n
  • The patient should take adequate rest, drink plenty of fluids (3-4 liters) and monitor the platelets closely ( even after the fever comes down)<\/li>\n
  • Use cold sponging and Paracetamol for fever<\/li>\n
  • Aspirin, Ibuprofen other pain killers should be avoided. Antibiotics are not required<\/li>\n
  • It is important to be watchful of any danger signs (bleeding, rash, abdominal pain or vomiting)<\/li>\n
  • Dengue will not spread by touch, cough or secretions. But the spread of dengue from a patient to others is possible through mosquito bite<\/li>\n
  • The patient should be protected from contact with the mosquito by ensuring he sleeps under a bed-net<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
