Dengue Fever: Symptoms, Treatment and Prevention

Mild Symptoms of Dengue Fever

Some of these mild symptoms are what is usually mistaken for other illnesses like flu or another viral infection. They include:

  • Severe headache
  • High fever [2]
  • Eye pain
  • Vomiting and feeling nauseous [3]
  • Pain in the muscles and joints
  • Skin rash that can disappear and reappear
  • Fatigue

These mild symptoms are mostly on younger children and people who have never had the infection before. These symptoms usually disappear after a week and rarely involve serious or fatal complications. However, if not urgently treated, easy problems can develop severe symptoms, such as Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and Dengue shock syndrome (DSS).
