What is Dengue Fever?
Dengue fever is a viral infection caused by the dengue virus and transmitted through Aedes mosquitoes. The disease ranges from mild symptoms like fever and headaches to severe complications like Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) or Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS). Without proper management, it can lead to internal bleeding, organ failure, or even death. Dengue is common in tropical and subtropical regions and requires immediate medical attention to prevent severe outcomes. Recovery depends on timely diagnosis, proper hydration, and medical intervention.
