12. Bleeding under the skin
Bleeding under the skin is another indicator of the fever. This symptom can look like bruising. However, it is actually internal hemorrhaging and a sign of the more deadly form of the disease. This deadly form (DSS) is identified by the petechiae and ecchymoses and can cause death within 12 to 24 hours. With proper medical treatment patients can recover.
In conclusion
Dengue fever is a serious viral infection and it can be fatal when not identified and treated early. If you suspect yourself or your loved ones to have dengue fever, seek treatment immediately.
