The Dangerous Dengue Bite....


My life agak huru hara sedikit lately... 
Antara sebab2 nyer adalah 
'Demam Denggi'...... 

Biasa dengar, baca,Tengok dlm tv, melawat friends & family yg kena sebelum ini.. 
This time rezeki my BigBoss sendiri yg kena....
Bila BigBoss kena memanglah Mum teruk jugalah terkena Impak dari Itu...

Ok, Dengue is a major problem in many tropical & sub-tropical regions of the world, and Malaysia is not spared from having to deal with the disease which occurs predominantly in urban and semi urban areas of the country...

Dengue continues to claim lives despite the rapid development of the country. 
A vector-borne disease transmited to humans through the bite of the female Aedes mosquito, dengue continues to be prevalent.

After a person is infected with the virus, the body will undergo different phases.

For the first three days, the person will experience the fever and all other symptoms of the disease including headache, joint & muscle aches, diarrhoea and feeling lethargic... 
Tastebud pun hilang...semua rasa pahit! 

After that, comes the critical phase, from the 4th to the 5th day...during this time, the capillary permeability increases causing the fluid and protein from the blood to accumulate in the body cavities which could lead to different problems including a build up of fluid between the layers of tissue that line the lungs and chest cavity and accumulation of fluid in the abdominal area.

If the patient do not recover from this stage, this is when the dengue fever will turn into dengue haemorrhagic fever.....the patient will become more lethargic, the heart rate increases and the blood pressure drops. Patient with dengue haemorrhagic fever will have to be treated in the ICU, whereas dengue patient are treated in the normal wards.

There is no treatment for both, so any action taken will be to treat the different symptoms and monitor hydration status, platelet count, even kidney condition. Fluids will also be given judiciously to replace loss. My Bigboss setiap hari mesti masuk 6 botol air, vitamin, makan ubat demam, makan ubat batuk...ambil darah dua kali sehari...pagi dan petang...

Memang nampak seksa sangat2... Ada masa menggiggil2...
....bila kita rasa punyerlah panas badan dia tapi bila tanya dia rasa sangat2 sejuk....

Disamping masuk air serta ubat2tan yg hospital bagi....eloklah juga minum banyak air suam, air 100 plus kalau boleh x ada gas & kalau boleh 10 tin sehari @ dua botol 1.5L @ lebih... Banyak makan buah buahan, jus buah buahan, jus kurma dan buah kurma.... Ada orang kata minum sup ketam nipah@ ketam batu pun sangat membantu & berkesan...tapi my bigboss awal2 dah warning... 
It's a NO NO NO for him... U guys boleh... Maka minumlah sekerap yg boleh...just the sup..
...isi jgn makan.. 

Actually, most people are aware of the danger and ways to prevent dengue, but not many are willing to take time to get involved in the activities... Community participation is vital in the war against dengue... 

So, esok & lusa weekend kan..elok sangat lah sejam dua buat aktiviti membersihkan kawasan di luar serta di dlm rumah kita masing2.... 
Kadangkala ada bekas ataupun tempat2 yg berkemungkinan besar ada takungan air - tempat nyamuk membiak.... yg mungkin selama in kita terlepas pandang... 

Mencegah adalah lagi baik dari merawat... 

Ok guys....
Sharing is Caring...
