Here are seven warning signs of dengue fever
Sudden onset of high fever, often reaching up to 104°F (40°C), is a common initial symptom of dengue fever.
Intense headache, typically located behind the eyes, is a characteristic symptom of dengue.
Also known as retro-orbital pain, this symptom is a significant indicator of dengue fever.
Often referred to as "breakbone fever" due to the severity of the pain in muscles and joints.
A rash may appear a few days after the fever starts. It can be maculopapular (small, red, raised bumps)
Gastrointestinal symptoms, including nausea and vomiting, are common in dengue fever.
Profound fatigue and general weakness can persist for weeks, even after the fever
