What is "dengue fever"?

Dengue fever is a viral illness spread by mosquitoes infected with the dengue virus. It is common in tropical and subtropical regions. Symptoms typically include high fever, severe headache, pain behind the eyes, joint and muscle pain, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, and skin rash. In serious cases, dengue fever can lead to life-threatening conditions characterized by intense bleeding, organ failure, and dangerously low blood pressure. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and preventing complications, with rest, hydration, and pain relief medications. Prevention measures include reducing mosquito breeding areas, using insect repellents, and wearing protective clothing to avoid mosquito bites. Also, vaccines are available in some countries to prevent dengue fever.
