Hello, Dengue is a viral disease, it takes almost 7-8 days to recover. If your son's fever is not decreasing and his WBC count and Platelet count is decreasing, then kindly admit him to hospital only. If WBC count and Platelet count is less then below mentioned criteria, then admission is necessary; WBC: if going below 3000 Platelet: if going below 1,00,000 Regards
