Dengue fever is no longer a strange disease to us. The wet or rainy season can be considered as favorable conditions for the development of midges.

Mosquitoes are the vectors of infection that have been detected and evaluated as having a fast transmission rate. Usually, the incubation period of the patient will last about 5-7 days. At first, there may be no obvious symptoms or the patient may have signs that are easily confused with measles, typhus or rubella.
Symptoms of dengue fever according to researchers are not the same. Symptoms may depend on the health and environmental conditions of each patient. For patients with mild dengue fever will appear fatigue, pain with high fever. If you have severe dengue fever, you can monitor it based on signs such as high fever causing convulsions, vomiting blood. When the symptoms of the disease are serious, the patient should not be subjective and should quickly go to the hospital for emergency care if necessary.
The course of dengue fever can be rapid due to the severity of the infection. For patients with high fever and fatigue, attention should be paid to the hospital for quick examination. Based on the blood index test results, you can assess and detect the risk of dengue early.

For patients in the recovery stage, the number of detected viruses will tend to decrease.
If detected early in the early stages, only high fever will reduce complications later for the patient. The climax stage is the second stage of the disease process, which is often quite complicated. Patients may be prescribed dengue fever medicine to treat it until the disease is cured. However, stage 2 is said to be quite complicated, if not detected and treated early, it can be dangerous to many organs.
Stage 2 of the process of dengue fever will have specific symptoms such as high fever, hemorrhagic nodules. The number of hemorrhagic nodules is constantly increasing and dense on the patient's skin. In addition to this common manifestation, the patient may also experience congestion, nosebleeds, bleeding gums. More severe can cause internal bleeding that seriously affects the patient's health. Because of the risk of internal bleeding, patients suspected of having dengue fever need to go to the hospital for examination and follow-up if necessary.
