1. Do not use any painkiller other than Paracetamol(crocin) for fever. Painkillers affect the platelet function, which are already reduced in Dengue fever. Reduced platelet function and number can cause bleedingcomplications.
2. Symptoms of Dengue fever are no different from routinely seen viral fever or flu, so do not becomplacent. Get your platelet count checked.
3. If platelet count is reduced, the diagnosis can be confirmed by SEROLOGY TEST which is available at almost all the hospitals.
For more details please go through the attachments and consult your Doctor.
Don't forget: - Prevention is better than Cure.
