How Many Days After Recovering From Dengue Should Exercise Routine Be Resumed?

I was diagnosed with dengue a few days ago. Actually the disease started 8 days ago, had a couple of days with high fever and joint pain then started recovering. Right now I only have some little itching in my hands and feet. Ganglions are also turning back to its regular size. Platelet count is 175.000, leukocytes finally reached the minimum (4.5+). I didn t suffer any visible hemorrhages, nor abdominal pain. Lowest platelet count was 105.000 (but the day I got that blood work wasn t the worse, I have to confess). My question is: how long should I wait before coming back to my regular exercise routine? It includes basically heavy weight lifting. Thanks!

hi you can resume exercise from next one week,starting with basic weights progressing heavyweights.but only thing you need to keep in track is as exercise increases general body temperature so supplement with lots of water and good food.
