What are the Symptoms of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever?
The symptoms of DHF usually appear 3-7 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito. Initial symptoms are similar to those of dengue fever and include high fever, severe headache, pain behind the eyes, joint and muscle pain, rash, and mild bleeding (such as nose or gum bleeding). As the disease progresses, more severe symptoms can develop, including persistent vomiting, severe abdominal pain, difficulty breathing, and bleeding from the nose, gums, or under the skin, leading to shock.
