Dengue Fever is acute febrile illness , its typically caused by Arbovirus and its transmitted to man through Aedes mosquito that's basic information about dengue fever . Dengue fever principally involves Blood vessels , Bone Marrow , Joint and cells of kidney , liver , thymus , spleen and lung. In this disease main parthenogenesis is vascular permeability which resulting in loss of plasma so some time patient status may become critical and develop hypo tension with shock and its called DENGUE SHOCK SYNDROME and some time more sever case also suffering from DENGUE HEMORRHAGIC FEVER and its even more dangers .. Dengue fever case suffering from fever and its very high fever joint pain and also rash also appear after 2 to 3 days of illness just because of joint pain involvement its also called BREAK BONE FEVER .. If i talk about laboratory finding then torniqute its value always more then 20 in dengue fever case but diagnosis always made on thrombocytopenia that mean patient platelet count is decease its normal value is 2.5 to 4 lkh but in dengue fever case its down below 1 lkh and osme time even dangers and its down below 20,000 k so always look on platelet count in dengue fever case .. About treatment part there no particular treatment for dengue fever its always symptomatic treatment like for fever and pain but if patient develop dengue shock syndrome then we have to give some saline to maintain patients blood pressure and in sever case we have to give fresh frozen plasma to maintain patients platelet count.. About Complication there are some complication related with dengue fever and its Encephalitis , Acute liver failure , Renal failure and some time DIC also .. So friends if you have any more information about dengue fever then tell me but my main point for discussion is still there and its " HOW CAN WE CONTROL DENGUE FEVER " Keep Lotting ..

There are natural remedies for Dengue Fever. Papaya is one of them. Information can be found for this and other remedies at http://earthclinic.com/CURES/dengue.html I think the best thing to do is catch it in the early stages. You have written quite an informative discussion on it. I have not experienced Dengue where I live but am aware that it is very bad in some areas of the world.

Hahaha what are you doing in Dengue world. It is so nice to follow you around. In the Philippines, they have discovered a plant that could cure dengue they call, "tawa tawa". Although this has been studied until now. You may find it interesting. http://ph.news.yahoo.com/tawa-tawa-studied-fight-against-dengue-083006775.html

It is interesting. I'm always interested in natural remedies. This plant fights the dehydration that is such a deadly part of Dengue Fever. That's good. More research should be done in natural cures. They are much better for you. But of course the health department has warned the people not to experiment with it, as people are making tea from tawa-tawa. I know in our country the majority of doctors and even the health dept. try to discourage the use of all natural remedies, as there is no money in it for them.

To control Dengue Fever is to control first the reason where do we get dengue. You have always clean the surroundings make it sure there is no stagnant water in the area. You can use insect repellant too. And I heard that if you a patient suffering for dengue fever, they use papaya leaves. I did't know the process, i'm still research for that matter.

By killing the source of these dengue-carrying mosquitoes. We should not allow them to breed by seeing to it that there are no waters lying around in which they could breed. All of us must do this and if there are places which had been found to be infested with dengue-carrying mosquitoes, then these places must be sprayed and the breeding places must be destroyed.
