Malaria is a severe and highly contagious vector-borne disease caused by the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito.

When is the Malarial Parasite Test Prescribed?

An individual need to book a lab test for malaria if the doctor suspects a malaria infection based on the symptoms the infected is experiencing. If a person has travelled to regions where malaria is a common disease, then booking a malarial smear test is advised to mitigate the potential risks of malaria. The symptoms of malaria usually develop within 14 days of a parasite infection. In rare cases, the symptoms may appear in the infected as early as seven days or as long as a year. Hence, a malaria parasite test result becomes standard for healthcare experts to detect malaria and monitor the ongoing treatment for malaria as well.

Some early-stage symptoms of a malarial infection include high fever followed by chills, severe body aches, vomiting or nausea, extreme weakness or fatigue and body ache. The early-stage symptoms of malaria are very similar to having the flu. Some major symptoms faced during the later stages of malarial infection include constant shivering, high fever, jaundice, seizures, confusion and concentration issues, convulsions and bloody stools. If a healthcare professional suspects a possible malarial infection, one can search for a ‘malaria test near me’ and book the test. A blood smear is one of the reliable tests prescribed for diagnosing and monitoring malaria. One can book a malaria test at home by booking it online at Max Lab or visiting their nearest Max Lab facility. The prices of such malarial antigen tests are cost-efficient at Max Lab, which can be checked online easily.
