Hi..dengue usually does not require any treatment as long as the platelets levels are fine..paracetamol is the only medication that u can take in view of fever..if temperature crosses 100 degrees F then sponging with cold water helps to bring down the temperature..
Next Steps
Repeat platelet levels as advised by your physician as that is very crucial in dengue
Health Tips
- stay well hydrated with plenty of fluids - tepid sponging to bring down fever - repeat platelets
