Dengue is a viral disease and is transmitted through mosquito bites. By taking certain precautions, dengue can be effectively prevented. These precautions involve wearing protective clothing and eliminating stagnant water sources. However, despite these measures, if a child contracts dengue, they may experience symptoms such as high fever, red rashes, body aches, and a gradual decrease in platelet count and blood pressure. It is crucial to closely monitor the affected individual during this period and seek medical attention under the supervision of a doctor. In most instances, dengue is not severe, and complications do not arise in the affected individual. Nonetheless, it is essential to promptly consult a doctor for proper evaluation and management.
