    How to care for the patient while they have a fever -- How to care for the patient while fever is going away.

    If it is dengue, serious complications of the disease can develop. If the complications are recognized early, and a doctor is consulted, it may save the patient’s life. Your doctor can order more tests to see if the patient needs to be hospitalized. The doctor can also order specific tests for dengue, but those tests will take longer than a week for the results to come back.
