Studies suggest that some of the causes of abdominal pain in dengue infections include hepatitis, acute acalculous cholecystitis, acute pancreatitis, and colitis.

Dr. Shaik Suggests...

Take a BRCA1 & BRCA2 DELETION/DUPLICATION ANALYSIS Test or Take a UGT1A1 GENE (GILBERT’S SYNDROME) Test

Is it possible to have dengue without fever?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I had dengue fever in July 2017. Currently, many dengue cases have been reported in my locality in Bangalore. I have the following concerns: Is a second dengue infection always severe or fatal? I have two children, a 5 year old boy and a 3 month old baby girl and I am very worried. Which test is considered confirmatory for dengue?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My friend has had a fever for the last 3 days, along with headache and joint pain. He consulted a doctor, who prescribed some medication for the fever and suggested tests. His Dengue IgG and IgM tests came back negative, but the Dengue NS1 test is positive. What does this mean? How serious is it, and can dengue be treated effectively at this early stage? Please provide guidance as soon as possible.
