Dengue fever
The female mosquito that causes dengue fever, called Andes Egypt, migrated to Egypt from Latin America. Dengue fever was first identified in Asian countries in the 1950s. Then this virus spread rapidly from the Philippines, Thailand to Pakistan, India, Africa, Middle East and Southeast Asia. Since 1995, the severity of dengue fever has increased.
The female mosquito that causes dengue virus, which has black stripes on its body, lays its eggs in water tanks, pots, drains, rainwater, lakes, stagnant water, containers filled with clean water, etc. and these mosquitoes mostly attack humans at sunrise or sunset.
Since dengue fever is caused by four different viruses, if a patient recovers from one type of virus, he is protected from that particular virus for life, but the other three types of virus can infect him again at any time. And according to a research, he may suffer from Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever again.
These mosquitoes do not lay eggs in temperatures around 22 degrees Celsius, due to which their breeding process stops. However, the eggs laid by them remain safe and wait for favorable weather for breeding. From August to December, the eggs of these mosquitoes multiply rapidly.
The symptoms of dengue fever appear three to seven days after the virus enters the body. The symptoms of dengue fever include cold, flu, high fever, loss of appetite, pain behind the eyes, severe body pain, muscle and Severe pain in the joints, appearance of red spots on the body, difficulty in breathing, yellowing of the color, abdominal pain and lack of platelets and white cells in the patient's blood. There are four stages of dengue fever. In the first stage, the patient starts having severe fever and severe pain in the head and pain in the knees and joints. In the second stage, along with severe fever and body pain, bleeding from the colon, gums and skin also starts. The third stage, the circulatory system, is also very badly affected. While the fourth and final stage is very painful for the patient. In which, due to severe fever and pain, due to the reduced immunity, the patient starts suffering from many other diseases easily and can also cause excessive bleeding, shock and sudden drop in blood pressure. Due to which the patient dies.
This fever is also called break bone fever because during this fever the patient's bones and muscles get severe pain and then the severity of the disease increases to such an extent that the mouth and nose bleed. It begins to flow. Dengue fever is usually more common in people with weakened immune systems
In addition, severe infection causes dengue hemorrhagic fever (Dengue hemorrhagic fever), which is a type of dengue infection in which there is a very high fever for two to seven days and the patient has fever along with abdominal pain and breathing is difficult. In this condition, due to the decrease in the number of platelets, bleeding starts and excess blood can cause cardiac arrest, shock and sudden drop in blood pressure, which leads to death. In such a situation, the patient should be admitted to the hospital immediately. According to the World Health Organization, if the patient receives timely and appropriate treatment, the death rate from dengue hemorrhagic fever is less than one percent. Dengue virus infects platelets in the blood. Under normal conditions, these platelets stay in the human body for about 5 to 10 days and replace them when needed in the body, but in a person infected with dengue virus, the dengue virus destroys the body's ability to make new cells. They do. The number of platelets per microliter of blood of a normal person should be around 150,000 to 450,000, but the number of people suffering from dengue starts to decrease. In which immediate treatment is required because the condition can be life-threatening if the number of platelets is less than 50,000.
Dengue virus cannot be transmitted from one person to another. The duration of an infection with this virus is completed when a mosquito bites a person with the virus and transmits the virus to the blood. The risk of spreading the virus to another person occurs when a mosquito that does not already have the dengue virus bites a person with dengue and then transmits the virus to that person. It is also transmitted from an infected person to a mosquito and then when that mosquito bites a healthy person, the virus is also transmitted to that person. Therefore, it is necessary to isolate dengue patients to prevent the dengue virus from spreading to healthy people.
Modern research has proved that this fever is not very dangerous and with proper care and regular treatment the patient can recover in just one to two weeks. Therefore, as soon as any of the above symptoms appear, the patient should drink as much water and drinks as possible and contact the nearest medical center immediately. Causes. Consume easily digestible and light foods, and use of chilies should be kept to a minimum. In the case of fever, the patient should avoid giving any medicine by himself, but according to the doctor's instructions, the common medicines that relieve the symptoms and reduce the pain can be given to the patient. The patient should not use Aspirin. This should be done because it thins the blood and then can cause internal bleeding or leakage. Which should not be given at all in dengue fever. In case of lack of platelets, more platelets should be supplied immediately.
Take up
Prevention from dengue mosquito is the only way to avoid this disease and preventive measures should be done by cleaning houses, offices and shops twice to three times a week and spraying mosquito killer. Every corner of the house and under beds and sofa seats etc. should be sprayed properly. These mosquitoes usually bite more in the morning and evening hours, so special care should be taken during these times. To avoid mosquitoes, put nets on the doors and windows, and spray mosquito repellent on the curtains of the doors and windows and behind the curtains.
As mosquitoes that spread dengue live in clean water, water tanks, buckets and other containers should be covered. Water should not be kept in any water storage vessel for more than a week. Do not allow water to accumulate inside and outside the houses. Dengue mosquitoes can also breed in empty used tin cans and car tires, so these types of things that contain water should be kept empty. Water should not be allowed to accumulate around plant pots and beds for a long time. To avoid mosquito attack, wear a full-sleeved shirt and full-coverage clothing and use mosquito repellent lotion.
Make the use of mosquito nets mandatory for dengue patients and children, pregnant women and the elderly should rest in mosquito nets during rest periods. Use joggers and socks for morning and evening walks in the park.
Cleanliness is half faith and by keeping our homes and areas clean and taking measures to prevent dengue we can avoid falling victim to this disease. We can stay safe not only from dengue fever but also from many other diseases by keeping the environment around us clean.
