I had dengue a month ago, and my platelets dropped to 18k. I got treated in the hospital and felt better after. The first week was okay, just a bit of tiredness. But now, during the day, I'm feeling way more tired and low on energy. I went back to the doctor and did blood tests again, and they said everything's normal, but I'm still feeling worn out daily. There's a slight improvement, but it's really slow. Also, I have cervical issues. Any idea what could be going on?

I'm really worried about this fever I've been dealing with since last week. It's been coming and going, and I'm also struggling with a cold. Every time I take medicine, I feel better for a few hours, but then the fever just comes back. What could be causing this, and how can I get it under control?

Your recurring fever and cold symptoms, despite temporary relief from medication, may indicate a underlying infection, such as a viral or bacterial infection, sinusitis, or a secondary infection like pneumonia or bronchitis; consider consulting a doctor for a thorough evaluation, including a physical examination, blood tests, and possibly a chest X-ray, to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment, which may include antibiotics, antivirals, or anti-inflammatory medications

I've been recovering from dengue and it's been a week since I got better. My platelet count is over 250,000 now, but my TLC was 4000 a week ago. I'm itching to get back to my routine! I don't do heavy stuff, just some skipping and a few exercises. Is it okay for me to start again?

After recovering from dengue, it's essential to gradually resume physical activities, so you can start with low-intensity exercises like skipping and light cardio, but wait for at least 2-3 weeks before resuming full-fledged exercise routine, and ensure you're consuming a balanced diet rich in nutrients, iron, and folic acid to replenish lost platelets and support overall recovery, under the guidance of your doctor.
