I was having low grade fever and body ache. The doctor advised me to get a dengue test. My report shows IgM and IgG non reactive, but NS1 is reactive. What does this mean?

NS1 positive confirms dengue in the early phase (first 5 days). You should rest, stay well hydrated, and monitor platelet count. Avoid painkillers like ibuprofen. If you develop bleeding, dizziness, or worsening symptoms, seek urgent medical care.

Hello Sir/Mam, I have had a fever for three days. On day four, I went to the doctor who advised me to do a blood test. In the test, my ESR is 100. The doctor said there is swelling in my liver and also mentioned that if I get a fever again, I should do a lung X ray. Kindly guide me, is this a serious problem? Why did the doctor suggest a lung X ray? I have also attached the report, please check.
