About Dengue in Hyderabad
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral infection caused by the dengue virus, transmitted primarily by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which breeds in stagnant water around homes. It is endemic across much of India and tends to surge sharply during and after the monsoon season when mosquito breeding conditions are favourable. The illness typically presents with sudden high fever accompanied by severe body pain, giving it the historical name "breakbone fever." While most cases are self-limiting, a small proportion progress to severe dengue with plasma leakage, bleeding, and organ impairment, which can be life-threatening without prompt medical care. Early recognition and close monitoring of warning signs are critical to preventing complications.
