What should you know about mga sintomas ng dengue?

Dengue commonly presents with [Fever](/symptoms/fever/) and may bring a strong headache, pain behind the eyes, muscle aches, joint pain, chills, nausea or a rash. Some people develop easy bruising or bleeding from the nose or gums. Symptoms can overlap with other infections, so a symptom list alone cannot confirm dengue. A person may feel worse as the fever changes, which is why continued observation matters.

Rest and drink fluids in small, frequent amounts if you can keep them down. Record temperature, fluid intake, urine output and any bleeding. Ask a clinician or pharmacist which fever medicine is suitable; avoid aspirin or ibuprofen unless specifically advised because they can increase bleeding risk. Do not take antibiotics for dengue unless another infection has been diagnosed. Arrange a [GP Consultation](/treatments/consultations-and-assessment/gp-consultation/) for assessment and testing advice.

Seek emergency help for severe abdominal pain, repeated vomiting, bleeding, black stools, faintness, confusion, difficulty breathing, cold clammy skin or inability to drink. Prompt review is also needed for worsening weakness, very little urine or new [Easy Bruising](/symptoms/easy-bruising/). A clinician can assess suspected [Dengue Fever](/conditions/dengue-fever/) and decide whether monitoring or hospital care is needed.

Ask which tests are useful at this stage, what fluids and fever medicine are suitable, how often to monitor yourself, and which warning signs require emergency care.
