Dengue Fever: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatments

Intense Headaches

Many people with dengue fever report intense headaches. While the exact cause of this condition is still unknown, many scientists think that it might be associated with a high fever. Another possible cause is the increase in your internal temperature, which would irritate your head nerves and lead to a radiating and gnawing head pain. While it might be alleviated with some painkillers, the effects are only temporary. It is important to consult your doctor to seek medical treatments and resolve the underlying cause. [5]
