Im going to stay in Cambodia for long time and I will not use any prevention medicine….for so long time is not suitable, but I have Malarone in case I´ll get malaria. How can I recognize, when I get malaria, what are the symptoms? Thanks

(I know how to prevent myself…but not always is for 100%….)

Symptoms of malaria include fever, shivering, arthralgia (joint pain), vomiting, anemia (caused by hemolysis), hemoglobinuria, retinal damage, and convulsions. the classic symptom of malaria is cyclical occurrence of sudden coldness followed by rigor and then fever and sweating lasting four to six hours, occurring every two days in P. vivax and P. ovale infections, while every three for P. malariae. P. falciparum can have recurrent fever every 36–48 hours or a less pronounced and almost continuous fever. for reasons that are poorly understood, but that may be related to high intracranial pressure, children with malaria frequently exhibit abnormal posturing, a sign indicating severe brain damage. Malaria has been found to cause cognitive impairments, especially in children. It causes widespread anemia during a period of rapid brain development and also direct brain damage. this neurologic damage results from cerebral malaria to which children are more vulnerable.Cerebral malaria is associated with retinal whitening, which may be a useful clinical sign in distinguishing it from other causes of fever.
