Hello Doctor, Can I get my son blood test done? Last week he had a fever with chikungunya like symptoms, and now he is weak. Since last evening, he has developed rashes on his face but no fever.

Rash after fever may be post viral. Can go for blood test now. Do CBC, Platelets, Dengue/Chikungunya IgM. Give fluids, rest. See doctor if fever returns, rash worsens.

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a DENGUE IgM - RAPID - KA Test

Book CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test Book DENGUE IgM - RAPID - KA Test

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

My 11 month old baby has been having fever for the past 15 days. Only her head feels very hot, and it occurs mainly at night. Today, we did a blood test, which shows very low hemoglobin and a blood infection. What should I do, and what treatment is needed?
