Hello,

Kindly get investigated with dengue profile. If fever, rashes and bleeding tendencies associated it can mostly be dengue or any other viral infection for which you have to get treatment.

First, get dengue profile done, complete blood count, ESR, chest x-ray and take antiviral treatment by any doctor with a prescription.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
