I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you foremost, you need to bust the dengue myth that every mosquito bite will cause dengue. Only the female aedes aegypti mosquitoes can spread the dengue virus and in fact, these mosquitoes can transfer the infection only when they themselves are infected. So, no need to panic after each mosquito bite. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
