Dengue
  • Epidemiology and Transmission:

    • Dengue fever is a viral illness transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, primarily Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus.
    • Endemic in tropical and subtropical regions, dengue poses a significant public health challenge worldwide.
    • Rapid urbanization, population movement, and climate change contribute to the spread of the disease.
  • Clinical Manifestations and Diagnosis:

    • Dengue presents with a spectrum of symptoms, ranging from mild fever, headache, and joint pain (dengue fever) to severe manifestations such as dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS).
    • Diagnosis relies on clinical evaluation, supported by laboratory tests such as antigen detection, nucleic acid amplification, and serological assays.
    • Timely recognition of warning signs and early intervention are critical to preventing complications and fatalities.
  • Homeopathic Approach to Dengue Fever:

    • Dr. Jamadar prescribes homeopathic remedies such as Eupatorium perfoliatum, Gelsemium, and Rhus toxicodendron to address symptoms like high fever, body aches, and fatigue in patients suffering from Dengue fever.
