Homeopathy And Dengue!

There are three types of dengue fever namely, Classical dengue fever, Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever and Dengue Shock Syndrome. Classical dengue fever involves repeated attacks of chills, facial flushing with non-specific febrile syndrome which may be accompanied by maculopapular rashes. Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever is the infection caused by more than one dengue virus. Initially the symptoms are similar to that of classic dengue fever but shortly after the fever, symptoms of leakage of plasma appears with haemorrhagic symptoms. Shoch syndrome is a dangerous complication of dengue infection and is associated with high mortality.

The Peruvian bark cinchona is used to prepare the homoeopathic medicine known as China. It was one of the first remedy to be proved by Hahnemann. It was effective against malaria in Hahnemann's time. The medicine is used to treat fever and other symptoms associated with dengue.

The most common symptoms associated with dengue are high fever, headaches, muscle and joint pain and pain behind the eyes. The patient may also experience widespread rash, nausea and vomiting. Spots on the skin do not appear when affected by dengue, whether mild or life-threatening.

Dengue fever is not caused by mosquitoes. They merely serve to spread the fever. Dengue fever is caused by any one of the four dengue viruses spread by mosquitoes that thrive in and near human lodgings. When a mosquito bites a person infected with a dengue virus, the virus enters the mosquito. When this carrier or infected mosquito bites another person, the virus enters that person's bloodstream and that person is affected with dengue fever.
