How long does it take to get sick after dengue fever infection
Dengue fever is an infectious disease caused by the dengue fever virus. Clinical symptoms can usually occur 1-14 days after infection, and the general course of the general disease is 2-4 weeks.However, due to individual differences between different patients or different treatment effects after infection, the disease time may be different.
1. Children: Children’s infection with dengue fever can occur 1-14 days of fever, rash, headache, joint pain and other symptoms, and rash can appear before other symptoms, and will gradually disappear after about 5 days.Dengue fever is mainly transmitted through the mosquito bites. The incubation period is about 14-21 days, with an average of 14 days. Therefore, children can usually experience fever symptoms on the first day.
2. Adults: The occurrence of adults after dengue fever is usually a little later than children, about 2-4 days.Dengue fever is mainly transmitted through Iraqi bite. On the first-7th day of the infection, symptoms such as fever, rash, and lymph nodes can occur. On the 8th-9th day, symptoms such as faster pulse, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea will occur.Patients with severe illnesses can also be manifested as congestion, bleeding, shock, and various complications. The course of disease is about 10-14 days;
3. Old man: The occurrence of the disease after the elderly infected with dengue fever can be extended slightly, but the condition changes slowly.Due to the decline in the body’s body resistance, the condition has progressed rapidly, and the course of the disease can be significantly prolonged;
4. Low immune function: For those with low immune function, the disease time after dengue fever can be significantly shortened, and there may be no obvious symptoms.Because the immune response response after the immune function is relatively weak, the condition will change faster.
Dengue fever can be transmitted through mosquito bites, and can also be transmitted by direct contact with the blood or body fluid of the infected person.Therefore, during the popularity of dengue fever, patients should pay attention to personal hygiene and avoid places where there are more mosquitoes to avoid infection.
