You might have heard that papaya leaf juice can cure dengue, but is it true? The truth is: there’s no solid scientific proof that it cures dengue. Some small studies suggest it might help boost platelet count, but it’s not a substitute for medical treatment. Dengue is a serious viral infection that needs proper medical attention. Relying only on home remedies like papaya leaf juice can delay treatment and lead to dangerous complications. If you think you have dengue symptoms, here’s what you should do: * See a doctor immediately * Rest well and avoid strenuous activities. * Drink lots of fluids like water, coconut water, or oral rehydration solutions to prevent dehydration. * Avoid medicines like aspirin or ibuprofen as they can increase bleeding risk; use only doctor-recommended medications. * Monitor your symptoms closely, especially fever, bleeding, severe pain, or difficulty breathing. * Get your blood tested regularly to check platelet levels and other important markers. * Follow all medical advice and don’t skip follow-up appointments.
