Dengue fever is known as an infectious disease caused by the Dengue virus or, in simple words, this infection is transmitted through the bite of a mosquito. The first Dengue fever symptoms are very alike to flu symptoms. These are: fever, shiver in the body, severe headache and pain in moving eyes as well as it also hits the lower back area. It is a known fact when it says that prevention is better than the cure and in case of Dengue fever this statement proves out to be 100 percent accurate. It is better to use insecticides and other controlling ways to inhibit the growth of mosquitoes and to prevent the disease from spreading around. Dengue patient should rest and prevent dehydration in febrile phase. Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a severe, often fatal, complication of Dengue fever. If a clinical diagnosis is made early, a health care provider can effectively treat Dengue hemorrhagic fever using fluid replacement therapy.
