Hello doctor! My child had a fever, went to the hospital, the doctor did a blood test and said he had dengue fever, effusion in the lungs and excess fat. So, according to the doctor, how should my patient be treated? I've had it for about 6 days now and the skin rash is almost gone, how about the pulmonary effusion? Looking forward to consulting your doctor. Thank you doctor!

Hello! During the phase of dengue fever and fever, there will be a phenomenon of reabsorption of water and body fluids including pleural fluid, ie the body will reabsorb itself. However, depending on the clinical picture of the pleural effusion, the course of treatment in the child as well as the possible paraclinical tests, the doctor will evaluate and give the best advice for your baby.
