For dengue main concern should be regarding the platelet count so we should make sure that it doesn't do down than usual so give her papaya leaf juice which will boost her platelet count and we are even having some patented products available in market prepared from papaya leaf extract try to use them. Apart from that if the platelet count is going down than normal then she might need platelet transfusion so be cautious that her platelet count doesn't go down drastically.
