Some symptoms of dengue are headache, muscle, bone or joint pain, nausea, vomiting, pain behind the eyes, swollen glands, and rash. While most people recover within a week or so, the condition might worsen for some people and become life-threatening. This is known as severe dengue, dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome. In such cases, the platelets drop which can cause shock, internal bleeding, organ failure and even death.
