I recently did a Dengue test, and my Dengue IGM came back positive, but the Ns1 Antigen and IgG were negative. What does this mean for my health, and what should be my next steps? Should I be concerned?

Since your Dengue IgM test is positive, it indicates a recent infection with the Dengue virus. It is important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. You can take Paracetamol 500mg every 6 hours as needed for fever and body aches. Additionally, you should monitor your platelet count regularly and seek medical attention if you experience any warning signs such as persistent vomiting, severe abdominal pain, or bleeding.
