Rash
A particularly visible sign someone with dengue may develop is a widespread red rash. Little red dots or blotches may appear throughout the body. Proper hydration and over-the-counter medicines approved by a doctor may help alleviate symptoms.1‘Dengue.’ Nhs.uk, 23 Oct. 2017, www.nhs.uk/conditions/dengue/
While most people experience mild symptoms, some people may develop severe dengue, which is significantly more dangerous. Some symptoms are concerning enough to prompt a visit to an urgent care center or hospital.2‘Symptoms and Treatment.’ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 14 July 2020, www.cdc.gov/dengue/symptoms/index.html
