[|Human|] Hi, good day i was diagnosed of Dengue Fever on my third day of disease due to my positive Dengue NS1 result, I was not confined in the hospital since my platelet was not that low 139, it decreased to 120 then to 112 today (5th day of illness), I do not have fever for more than 18 hours right now but whats bothering me is my severe leg pain especially at the back of my knees, I can walk but its very painful, Is this still a symptom of dengue?or do I lack Vitamin B or Potassium thats causing my severe leg/back of my knees pain?Thank you very much
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, The symptoms and the lab reports are in favor of dengue fever. As the NS1 is positive it is in favor of dengue, and it can be confirmed by the IGM ELISA which helps to confirm the diagnosis but as there is a low platelet count along with the joint pain and the myalgic are classical of dengue. Dengue is a viral disease which is transmitted by bite of female Andes mosquito, and it is a self limiting disease, and it will come down by itself. It can be manged by fluid therapy and prepared to manage the complications following the disease. The platelet should be ready to manage the disease, and it will improve by itself. Symptomatic treatment should be given to manage the patient with dengue fever. Thank you.
