Dengue Fever risk in Lucknow

Dengue Fever is a viral infection spread by Aedes mosquitoes, causing high fever, severe headache, joint pain, and in serious cases, bleeding. Your Lucknow risk score of 46/100 means moderate concern, mainly during and after monsoon season (July-October) when stagnant water collects in drains, coolers, rooftops, and uncovered tanks around neighborhoods like Gomti Nagar, Aliganj, and industrial areas with poor drainage.

Remove standing water weekly from coolers, flower pots, old tires, and construction sites. Use mosquito repellent cream or coils, especially at dawn and dusk when Aedes bite. Wear full-sleeve clothing and sleep under treated nets. Report fever clusters to local health offices to trigger fogging. If symptoms appear, avoid self-medication with aspirin or ibuprofen, which can worsen bleeding.
