Most people with dengue have mild or no symptoms and will get better in 1-2 weeks. Rarely, dengue can be severe and lead to death. If symptoms occur, they usually begin 4-10 days after infection and last for 2-7 days.
Research is suggestive that people who get dengue the second time usually experience more severe dengue symptoms than people who get it the first time.
One should try applying pain relief creams, taking adequate rest and doing mild movements to get relief from mild joint pains during dengue or chikunguniya.
A hematocrit level increase greater than 20% is a sign of hemoconcentration and precedes shock. The hematocrit level should be monitored at least every 24 hours to facilitate early recognition of dengue hemorrhagic fever and every 3-4 hours in severe cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome.
Usually, multiple organs are affected due to dengue fever. However, the liver is the most affected during dengue infection.
