Hi! I had high fever which started 2 nights ago. I had all the symptoms of dengue fever. Is it normal for my fever to last a day? I can see the red spots on my arms and it is the 3rd day since my fever started. When will the itching stop? Am I recovering or should I be expecting another fever?
Hello, THX to contact us. We wish you a very best health at Chat Doctor. If I am your treating doctor I would like to advice you that having a dengue and a red spot on the skin is the alarming sign to you to get admitted in the ICU. The platelet count gone very low in you and so had started bleeding spot on your skin. Platelets which are losing releases the mediators and cause you itching. I advise you should visit the ER. If you have anything else to ask please contact me. Than. Chat Doctor; Infectious disease specialist
