Symptoms, treatment and prevention of Chikungunya disease

Lately, almost everyone has the same symptoms of fever, joint pain, tingling and itching. Such patients are now at home. At first many thought it was an airborne virus fever, but now no one understands that it is Chikungunya. The fever has spread through Aedes mosquitoes.

‘Chikungunya’ is an African word, meaning to bend like a bow. This nomenclature for swollen bone joints in fever. In 1952, the disease spread to Mekanda, Mozambique, and Tanzania in Africa. In 1955, a doctor named Marion Robinson first gave detailed information about the disease. Gradually, the disease spread to many parts of South and Southeast Asia, not just Africa.

Symptoms:

Symptoms usually appear within three to seven days of being bitten by a mosquito infected with the Chikungunya virus.

The fever ranged from 101 to 104.

There is severe pain in the joint. Normal walking is disrupted.

There are also problems like vomiting, headache, muscle aches, joint swelling, weakness.

There may be redness on the skin. Itching of the skin.

Aspirin, non-steroidal or anti-inflammatory drugs should not be taken. Because, if dengue has occurred, it can cause serious damage to the body.

Risk:

Malaria

Malaria is a contagious fever that is spread by the bite of the female Anopheles mosquito. The bacterium malaria (Plasmodium) can be transmitted from an infected person to another through mosquitoes.

Malaria Types: Malaria can be classified as Felseperam, Vivax, Oval and Malaria according to the type of bacterium. Depending on the type of symptoms, malaria can be identified as normal / uncomplicated malaria and severe malaria. Most of the malaria felciperum types in Bangladesh are 7 There is also vivax malaria Thirteen districts along the eastern border have been identified as malaria risk areas. About 5% of this malaria occurs in the three hill districts (Rangamati, Bandarban and Khagrachhari) and Cox's Bazar.

Symptoms of Malaria: Depending on the type of symptoms, malaria can be identified as normal / uncomplicated malaria and severe malaria.

Common / Complicated Malaria Targets: Malaria comes from fever at specific times In winter, Kapuni gives, there is severe pain in the body Besides, digestive disorders are seen The body feels weak At this time the hunger decreases So at this time the patient has to give light type of food ৷ especially liquid food Hard or heavy food should be avoided

Treatment of Malaria: Chloroquine, a oral medication, was used to treat common / uncomplicated malaria. As its effectiveness gradually decreased, various other medicines are now used Of which, the rule of using co-artem has been introduced in Bangladesh recently Although chloro quinine is still recognized in Bangladesh as an effective medicine for vivax malaria Cerebral malaria (severe malaria) - It is not possible to treat a patient with oral medication. As a result, they were rushed to the hospital and given treatment through nozzles Quinine injection is still the main treatment for severe malaria. Nursing is very important for such patients.

Kala-azar

What is Kalajvar: The word kalajvar is derived from the Hindi words kala and ajar Black means black and today means disorder The disease that causes the body to turn black when it suffers is called kala-azar. The scientific definition of kala-azar is different. In medical science it is called visceral leishmaniasis The same is called black fever Sandfly bites can spread the disease from one patient to another. Kala-azar is more or less present in all the countries of the world.

Outbreak of Kala-azar in United states: Although Kala-azar is found sporadically in almost all the districts of Bangladesh, it is more prevalent in Sirajganj, Rajshahi, Pabna, Dinajpur, Mymensingh and Thakurgaon districts.

Symptoms of kala-azar:

1.It has been found that most kala-azar patients are poor;

2.Fever - At first there may be a slight fever and sometimes there may be capunes with a high fever;

3.Fever for the first time can get better on its own After a few weeks of repeated fever, the body's immune system breaks down;

4.After suffering from the disease for a few days, the spleen on the left side of the patient's abdomen and the liver on the right side begin to grow slowly;

Blood emptiness occurs;

5.The skin of the body becomes dark;

6.Despite the high fever, the patient has little appetite and can eat a lot. As a result, they do not become weak easily So many patients do not feel the need to go to the doctor first As a result, patients with black fever with complications come for treatment.

7.Diagnosis of kala fever: There is similarity of kala fever with other fevers So it is very difficult to diagnose the first time Black fever is usually diagnosed by examining the patient's blood and bone marrow or spleen.

Treatment of Black Fever: Once the disease is diagnosed, most patients recover with the right dose of stebatin. The problem is that the stebatin drug and side effects often occur Some patients start bleeding after starting stebatin injection In this case, alternative medicine is needed later However, without treatment, most kala-azar patients die within a few years.

Prevention of black fever

1.Find out the patient in the affected area and take necessary steps for his treatment and post-treatment condition.

2.Disease diagnosis and treatment should be accompanied by control of the disease carrier sandfly or sand fly. Pesticides such as DDT should be sprayed to kill sand flies

3.The bushes around the house should be cleared Since sand flies are more common in barns, the barns need to be cleaned and garbage disposed of regularly.

4.The rat hole is one of the places where sand flies are born and rest So the rat hole has to be filled Note that no vaccine for this disease has been discovered yet

Typhoid fever

The symptoms of typhoid are fever but the part of the body that is affected is the small intestine Typhoid is caused by inflammation of the small intestine.

Cause: The disease is caused by a bacterium called Salmonella typhinum. The dormancy of typhoid is 10 to 15 days.

Symptoms: The main symptoms of typhoid in the first week are fever, constipation, headache, accumulation of dirt on the surface of the tongue, etc. In the second week, thin stools start with fever At this time the spleen cannot grow If not treated properly, the third or fourth week can lead to various complications in the digestive tract. If the fever persists, the small intestine may rupture or bleed from the digestive tract.

Testing: Typhoid can be diagnosed by blood test Blood culture in the first week or vidal test or toilet culture in the second week can be used to diagnose the presence of the virus.

Treatment: Typhoid is usually treated with cotrimoxazole, ciprofloxacin or aphrodisiacs. If the patient's condition is very bad and he cannot eat anything by mouth, the patient will gradually recover by giving ciprofloxacin injection or injection ceftriaxone. If the patient starts eating by mouth, he should stop injecting and start taking medicine by mouth. The whole treatment i.e. injections and tablets will continue for 2 weeks
