You will be feeling symptoms of JOINT PAIN in near future if you won't be taking AYURVEDA medicines to pacify that vish that has gone through mosquito!
If there are no symptoms then its fine...but if there is fever ...Consult Personally

If you have not fever then don't worry nothing will happen.
Only take ant allergic tablet like citrazine one time in a day for 3 days.

How do you know if it was a dengue mosquito not the other one?
Do you have a fever now?
Any other symptoms?
You must have your tests done before assuming anything.
If you have a fever now then take mahasudarshan ghanvati and amritarishta.
Rest treatment you will get after your tests are done .

You won't get dengu by bite ofa mosquito having white and black stripes on it's leg. It depends on your immunity and the number of bits u have to suffer. The preventive is to prevent mosquito multiplication.
