My wife had dengue fever last week and was hospitalized. She was discharged 3 days ago, but this morning she developed a fever again. We gave her Dolo 650 as per the doctor suggestion, which reduced the fever, but it returns whenever she sleeps and wakes up. We did a CBC test today: Hemoglobin 10.4, RBC normal, Platelets 295, WBC 14.5. I am concerned, does she need to be hospitalized again? Please advise

High WBC (14.5) post dengue may suggest infection. Fever with sleep needs recheck. Hospital visit recommended.

Dr. Siri Suggests...

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a DENGUE SEROLOGY RAPID (IgM AND NS1 ANTIGEN) - KA Test
