New Delhi. Frightening news has come after rains, floods, and water-logging in Delhi-NCR. A 20-year-old boy has died of Dengue Shock Syndrome in Ghaziabad, adjacent to Delhi. The Health Department of Ghaziabad has also confirmed the death of the youth due to DSS i.e. dengue shock syndrome. Please tell that DSS is considered the most dangerous stage of dengue. According to doctors, dengue shock syndrome occurs in one in a million, but death due to this at the beginning of the season is not a good sign. Death due to DSS in the initial days itself has put the health department in a quandary. In such a situation, it is believed that in the coming days, dengue can take a more formidable form.

According to the Ghaziabad Health Department, 'The deceased Ayush Goyal had a high fever on 27 July. A private doctor was consulted only on 27th July. On July 29, Goyal's platelet count was found to be 1.5 lacks in the dengue test, but he was having difficulty in passing stool and urine. As a result, the relatives admitted him to the hospital on 30 July. Goyal died yesterday i.e. on Tuesday.

Significantly, 29 cases of dengue have been registered in Ghaziabad till Tuesday. The danger of dengue remains in many areas of Ghaziabad including Indirapuram, Shipra Sun City, Vijay Nagar, Kaushambi, Vaishali, and Vijay Nagar. Apart from dengue, there is always a danger of diseases like malaria and chikungunya in this season. According to the doctors, this year more patients came to the hospitals in July than in June.

How dangerous is DSS?Symptoms of dengue start appearing after 3, 4 days after the mosquito bites. It may take longer than this. After this, pain starts in the whole body. Vomiting, headache, myalgia, epigastric discomfort, and abdominal pain are common. Patients often feel very weak. The fever lasts for 2-7 days and is followed by a drop in temperature. The risk of this disease remains high between July to October.

Every possible effort should be made to avoid mosquitoes in the rain.

According to doctors, there are three types of dengue fever, out of which two fevers are considered very bad. There are three types of fever such as classical dengue fever, dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), and dengue shock syndrome (DSS). Out of these three, the worst is DHF and DSS. If the patients suffering from these two types of dengue are not admitted to the hospital soon, then they may die. Please tell me that like Covid, there is no clear cure for dengue. After dengue is confirmed in the patient, treatment is done based on its symptoms. Doctors monitor every activity of the patient and treat them.
