I lost my nephew one month back ,he was just 5 years old and was suffering from Dengue.My grandmom and my aunty are suffering from Chikunguniya.My Aunt was even admitted to hospital for this . The medicine they are refering is just the pain killers.
Hi My brother was affected by Dengue in may, my family doctor was very quick to catch on the symptoms and he got his blood checked. The symptoms are severe headache and fever with vomiting sensation. If this happens we need to check our blood consistently and keep a check on RBC & WBC. Also need to avoid hard food when u have dengue as our gums will be weak. take all medicines that Doctors prescribes.
Recently I was on a 2 week trip to India, on second half of September. I was in Gurgaon, Noida and Delhi and noticed exceesive mosquitoes and foul smell, especially in Noida. I complained a lot but everybody thought it was just normal there. By the time I left back for USA, I started to get sick. After coming back, I hear so much about dengue in Delhi. The whole attitude of government is so casual and there are hunderds of people who are sick, can't afford to go to doctor, apply home remedies and are not part of statistics. I feel people affected by dengue in Delhi and surroundings are far more than reported....
My family members stay in Hyderabad, AP and most of them (5 out of 7) are suffering from chikungunya. They have been infected with this virus 3 months back and still suffering from the effects of the virus. Currently as there is no cure for this, they are depending on Ibuprofen, Paracetamol for relief from the joint and muscle pains, that are caused because of the virus. Since the virus has spread to the "political capital" (Delhi) and "health model state" (Kerala), have the authorities taken interest in "showing" their concern to this virus. I am sure that this is all because of the negligence of the health authorities, state authorities and the central authorities in controlling the virus. To make sure that these kind of health hazards dont happen across the country, the health officials at all levels in the affected states should be expelled from their posts. This will make sure that these kind of "negligence" does not happen in the future and that the current/next generation is saved from the mistakes committed by few government officials
I was in Hubli,karnatka for last 4-5 months ,most people in our office and each family was afflicted with chikangunya,it was the talk everyday ,no treatment and pains in the joints ,high fever ,it was a disease where thousand were afflicted ,during rainy season in june july . we are not keeping our water bodies clean,in delhi all the natural flows have been obstructed and nallah in the back of pillanji and in chankyapuri has been closed ,this is just an example deepak
this is not a serious disease. so that the profilaxis of this medicine is not yet founded. profilaxis is not needed. but now the government health authorities are in a dilemma because more people are infected with this Arbo virus. and many people are falsely being reported as dead by the medias. but the real cause of death is not because of chickung guniya and but the government authorities has to convince the people that they are doing something effective to prevent the spread of this epidemic. so that with the help of some homeopathic physicians they are giving preventive medicines which has not got any scientific backgrounds or any proof that this medicine will raise the antibodies against this virus. but even then they are distrubuting this medicine widely across the country. in order to make feel the nation that they have been doing and working for their well being.
how many people are making the environment clean?throughing the waste on roads, it is not only duty of the government, it is duty of every citizen,Government must educate the people and make environment clean.

No, i don't think homoepathy can prevent chikungunya-'cause it did not work in our family.Of course for post disease joint pains it might .all of us in our home are suffering.Pain killer works only for a few hours!Ireally wonder if ther are any home remedies to hasten the recovery.Pl let me know.Sometimes it's really depressing ,suffering this agonising pain.thank u.
One of our tenants died about 2 months back due to ChikunGunya.
Tamilnadu government has been idlest and the most irresponsible government. Even local councillors took better initiatives than the government officials.
Now everybody in our family is infected with the virus and are sufferring.
