Understanding Dengue Fever, IgG & IgM
Dengue is a viral infection caused by the dengue virus. The virus is transmitted to humans primarily through the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes. It typically presents with a sudden onset of symptoms, including high fever, severe headache, pain behind the eyes, joint and muscle pain, rash, and mild bleeding. Early detection and differentiation are crucial, as secondary dengue infections can sometimes lead to more severe forms of the disease, such as dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) or dengue shock syndrome.
A Dengue Antibody, IgM test helps to detect the presence of dengue-specific Immunoglobulin M (IgM) produced by the body in response to dengue virus. It helps in the early detection of dengue fever, often within the first few days of symptoms.
