Many people experience no signs or symptoms of a dengue infection. When symptoms do occur, they may be mistaken for other illnesses, such as the flu and usually begin four to 10 days after you are bitten by an infected mosquito. Dengue fever causes a high fever (40 C) and symptoms such as headache, muscle, bone or joint pain, nausea, vomiting, pain behind the eyes and many more.
Most people recover in about a week. Symptoms might intensify and become life-threatening in certain circumstances. This condition is known as severe dengue, dengue hemorrhagic fever, or dengue shock syndrome. When your blood vessels become broken and leaky, you have severe dengue. In fact, the number of clot-forming cells (platelets) in your blood decreases. Shock, internal bleeding, organ failure, and even death can result from this.
Severe dengue fever, which is a life-threatening condition, can manifest swiftly. The warning symptoms normally appear during the first day or two after your fever has subsided, and they may include extreme stomach ache, persistent vomiting, bleeding from the gums or the nose, blood in your urine, stools, or vomit, bleeding beneath the skin, which may seem as bruises and also difficult breathing.
