Objectives
The objective is to study the cutaneous manifestations in suspected cases of Chikungunya fever.
Material and Methods
A study was carried out in the outpatient department of DVL at Government General Hospital in Kakinada, India from July 2024 to September 2024. The study enrolled 24 patients with cutaneous manifestations, a history of fever, and arthralgia.
Results
Out of 24 patients, the Chik sign was found more often in males than in females. The patients showed hyper-pigmentation of the centro-facial region.
Conclusion
The Chik sign is seen in chikungunya fever and other arboviral diseases such as dengue. All patients had negative results on dengue serology. This series of Chik signs plays a significant role in diagnosing patients with Chikungunya in areas with limited resources.
