FAQ's
Symptoms of dengue fever may include high fever, severe headache, pain behind the eyes, joint and muscle pain, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, skin rash, and mild bleeding (such as nose or gum bleeding).
Dengue is primarily transmitted through the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes, particularly Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. These mosquitoes are commonly found in tropical and subtropical regions.
Preventive measures include using mosquito repellents, wearing protective clothing (long sleeves and pants), using mosquito nets, and eliminating mosquito breeding sites by removing stagnant water containers.
Yes, there is a vaccine available for dengue, but it is not universally recommended and may vary based on individual risk factors and geographical location. Consult with your healthcare provider for guidance.
While most cases of dengue fever are mild and self-limiting, severe cases can be fatal if not treated promptly. It’s essential to seek medical attention if you experience severe symptoms or complications.
If you test positive for dengue, it’s essential to follow your healthcare provider’s recommendations, get plenty of rest, stay hydrated, and monitor your symptoms closely. Severe cases may require hospitalization.
Yes, severe cases of dengue can lead to complications such as dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS), which can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.
Treatment for dengue fever typically involves supportive care, including rest, hydration, and pain relief medication such as acetaminophen. In severe cases, hospitalization and intravenous fluid therapy may be necessary.
The recovery period from dengue fever varies depending on the severity of the infection. Most people recover within 1-2 weeks with appropriate medical care and rest.
