Timely Diagnosis and Treatment Can Save Lives
One afternoon, some friends came over to visit Arman and Ridita. As they were chatting and catching up, suddenly, Arman and Ridita’s daughter, Anita, came inside from the garden and went straight to the sofa, lying down. One of the guests, noticing her unusual behavior, remarked, "Ridita, look! Your daughter doesn’t seem to be feeling well." Concerned, Ridita immediately went to Anita and placed her hand on her forehead. To her surprise, Anita’s forehead was burning with fever. Without wasting any time, Ridita quickly grabbed a thermometer and checked her temperature. It was 104°F — alarmingly high. Without hesitation, they rushed Anita to the hospital.
At the hospital, the doctor quickly examined Anita and confirmed that she had contracted dengue fever. Arman and Ridita were understandably panicked, but the doctor reassured them with a calm voice, saying, "You did the right thing by bringing her here. Her platelet count is decreasing, but the condition is not critical at this moment. You can take care of her at home for now." Ridita, still worried, asked, "How do we take care of her properly?" The doctor, while explaining the care instructions, said, "She needs nutritious liquid food and plenty of rest. For now, just administer paracetamol to manage the fever."
Arman, still concerned, asked, "Is there anything else we should be doing?" The doctor nodded and offered additional advice: "Make sure she stays inside a mosquito net to avoid any more mosquito bites, and you should use nets too. Ensure that there are no mosquitoes in your home. Most importantly, if her condition worsens, don’t hesitate to bring her back to the hospital."
Arman and Ridita took the doctor’s advice to heart and followed the prescribed care routine closely. They kept Anita hydrated, ensured she had a proper rest, and took steps to keep her away from mosquitoes. After a couple of weeks of careful attention and care, Anita recovered completely and was back to her cheerful self.
This experience highlighted the critical importance of early diagnosis and prompt medical care. The timely actions of Arman and Ridita, along with the doctor’s guidance, played a vital role in Anita’s quick recovery.

সময়মতো রোগ নির্ণয় এবং চিকিৎসা জীবন বাঁচাতে পারে কিছু বন্ধু আরমান এবং রিদিতাকে দেখতে এসেছিল। তারা কথা বলছিল। হঠাৎ, আরমান এবং রিদিতার মেয়ে অনিতা বাগান থেকে এসে সোফায় শুয়ে পড়ল। এটা দেখে অতিথিদের মধ্যে একজন বলল, "রিদিতা, দেখো! তোমার মেয়ের শরীর খারাপ লাগছে।" রিদিতা অনিতার কাছে গিয়ে তার কপাল স্পর্শ করল। অনিতার কপাল জ্বলছিল। তাই, রিদিতা অনিতার মুখের ভেতরে থার্মোমিটার রাখল। অনিতার তাপমাত্রা ছিল ১০৪ ডিগ্রি। সঙ্গে সঙ্গে তারা অনিতাকে হাসপাতালে নিয়ে গেল। সেখানে তার ডেঙ্গু ধরা পড়ে। আরমান এবং রিদিতা আতঙ্কিত হয়ে পড়েন, কিন্তু ডাক্তার তাদের আশ্বস্ত করেন, "আপনি তাকে হাসপাতালে এনে ঠিকই করেছেন। তার প্লাটিলেট কমে যাচ্ছে, কিন্তু অবস্থা এখনও গুরুতর নয়। আপনি বাড়িতে তার যত্ন নিতে পারেন।" এই কথা শুনে রিদিতা জিজ্ঞাসা করলেন, "আমরা কীভাবে তার যত্ন নেব?" ডাক্তার পরামর্শ দিলেন, "তাকে পুষ্টিকর তরল খাবার দিন। তার সঠিক বিশ্রামের প্রয়োজন। আপাতত কেবল প্যারাসিটামলই কাজ করবে।" আরমান তখন জিজ্ঞাসা করলেন, "আমাদের কি আর কিছু করা উচিত?" ডাক্তার উত্তর দিলেন, "অনিতাকে মশারির ভেতরে রাখুন এবং আপনারও মশারি ব্যবহার করা উচিত। নিশ্চিত করুন যে আপনার বাড়িতে কোনও মশা নেই। এবং সবচেয়ে গুরুত্বপূর্ণ, যদি তার অবস্থা আরও খারাপ হয়, তাহলে অবিলম্বে তাকে হাসপাতালে নিয়ে যান।" তারা ডাক্তারের প্রেসক্রিপশন এবং পরামর্শ অনুসরণ করলেন। কয়েক সপ্তাহের মধ্যে, অনিতা সুস্থ হয়ে উঠল।
