The patient is a person who suffers from a disease. A complete understanding of the symptoms of the disease as it progresses through different phases is very important in this regard.
Early Phase
Since this phase is marked by high fever, care should be taken to prevent the rise in temperature. In case of high grade fever sponging with moderately cold waster should be done. Paracetomol should be give to the patient on doctor€™s advice to subside temperature and pain.
Late Phase
The later phase is characterized by the rapid decrease in the fluid level of the patient; therefore the appropriate level of fluid should be maintained in the body of the patient by giving fresh juices or ORS (Oral Rehydration Salt).
In severe cases the patient enters into a condition of unconsciousness or shock. He/she should immediately be admitted to a hospital and instructions of the doctor should strictly be followed.
