  1. When symptoms appear

    The time from the initial malaria infection until symptoms appear (incubation period) generally ranges from:1

    9 to 14 days for Plasmodium (P.) falciparum.

    12 to 18 days for P. vivax and P. ovale.

    18 to 40 days for P. malariae.

    Symptoms can appear in 7 days. Occasionally, the time between exposure and signs of illness may be as long as 8 to 10 months with P. vivax and P. ovale.

    The incubation period may be longer if you are taking medicine to prevent infection (chemoprophylaxis) or because you have some immunity due to previous infections

    Symptoms

    Symptoms of typical uncomplicated (classic) dengue usually start with fever within 4 to 7 days after you have been bitten by an infected mosquito and include

    High fever, up to 105ºF

    Severe headache

    Retro-orbital (behind the eye) pain

    Severe joint and muscle pain

    Nausea and vomiting

    Rash

    The rash may appear over most of your body 3 to 4 days after the fever begins, and then subsides after 1 to 2 days. You may get a second rash a few days later.

    Symptoms of dengue hemorrhagic fever include all of the symptoms of classic dengue plus
