How is malaria diagnosed by a doctor?
Not being a doctor I can not really to answer that. From my own experience a doctor from the tropics has a good chance of diagnosing malaria by asking a few questions and taking note of the answers etc. The doctor may take a sample of blood to confirm his / her diagnosis.
If you think you have any medical symptom, whatsoever, I recommend seeking the advice of a professionally trained person. Symptoms that appear to be one thing may in fact be something totally different.
