Hello! Dengue fever is divided into 4 levels from mild to severe.
Grade 1: The patient has a mild fever, no symptoms of hemorrhage Grade 2: Fever with hemorrhagic symptoms Grade 3: The onset of signs of shock Grade 4: Severe shock The child with grade 1 dengue fever will be treated home treatment according to prescription, and scheduled follow-up visits. With grade 2, depending on the case, the child can be treated at home with close monitoring, or hospitalized if deemed necessary. Grade 3 and 4 cases require immediate hospitalization to avoid complications.
Therefore, in order to know how a child with dengue fever is treated at home, the first thing you need to do is take your child to the hospital for assessment, examination, and assessment of the extent.
