Specializes in Pediatrics

May be related: As you probably have learned, there is nothing much you can do for the Dengue fever, after effects of which can be felt for many weeks after the acute phase. Hair loss due to fluctuating health condition is generally temporary and improving nutrition with vitamin supplementation, should restore it in few months.
