Dengue illness lasts for 5-9 days during fever, need to give plenty of fluids along with antipyretics. Avoid pain killers and steroids. If taking liquids orally and blood pressure normal then its fine. Once fever subsides there is tendency of low blood pressure and low platelets. You need to check.
