Please continue reading this article as we share effective yoga asanas for post dengue recovery to improve your overall health.

Recently, an increase in dengue cases has been observed in several cities in India. The increasing number of dengue cases has alarmed the authorities to take preventive measures. According to the World Health Organization, “Dengue causes a wide spectrum of diseases. This can range from subclinical illness (people may not even know they are infected) to severe flu-like symptoms in infected people. Although less common, some people develop severe dengue, which can be a series of complications associated with severe bleeding, organ damage, and/or plasma leakage. Severe dengue has a higher risk of death when not managed properly.”

Some people develop severe dengue, which can be a series of complications associated with severe bleeding, organ damage, and/or plasma leakage. Symptoms of dengue fever include muscle pain, bone pain, joint pain, rash, high temperature, throbbing headache, vomiting, and nausea. It can create serious health problems as it weakens the immune system, and as a result, the person may experience serious problems after recovery. Post-recovery dengue side effects last for a month and some of its common symptoms are severe weakness, joint muscle pain, loss of appetite, weight loss, hair loss, and skin rash. But, good nutrition, rest, and gentle yoga asanas can help in later recovery. Even if you are fine and healthy, a couple of yoga asanas will not hurt you. Therefore, practice these yoga asanas slowly to strengthen immunity after recovery.
