I'm a bit worried because I had dengue a couple of months back and recovered, but recently I've been experiencing some pain behind my knee, specifically in the popliteal fossa area, especially when I stretch or walk, and my heel is hurting too. My platelet count is at 2 lakh now, which I hope is fine. I'm also losing a lot of hair and have started taking ADHAIR tablets after seeing a dermatologist. Do you think these symptoms could be signs of dengue coming back, or is it something else?

I've been dealing with this pain in my left shoulder for the last few days. It's really uncomfortable and even spreads to my upper chest when I breathe. On top of that, I'm noticing pain in my joints, mostly in my wrists and fingers. It's pretty worrisome, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can you give me some advice on what this might be?
