Digestion Problems After Dengue Treatment, Foul Smelling Stools, Irritation Around Anal. After Effect Of Dengue?
Hi, I am 41 years old. recently got cured from dengue fever . Now I am facing some digestion problem. My first time stool in the morning remains alright but after that, when I go to the latrine for 2nd or third time, my stool becomes very bad smelling and also I am feeling irritations arround the anals. What should I do? Is it an after-Dengue effect?

Hi Payel,
Your symptoms are different; they are not due to the after-effects of Dengue fever. It most probably seems like you have intestinal worm infestation.
Consider taking a course of deworming medicine like Albendazole or Mebendazole. Please get them prescribed by your primary care physician.
The irritation feeling around the anus is also because of this.
Take a diet rich in fiber and drink plenty of fluids orally.
Hope you get well soon.
Regards,
