Hi
See you need to understand even if Aedes mosquito ( Aedes mosquitoes are called tiger mosquitoes as they have strip appearance like tiger) bites you
Its not necessary you will get dengue or any other disease which it can transfer
Only if the mosquito is infected by the disease
And after a time when it becomes infectious only then he can transmit it by bite to humans
The mosquito can be recognized by white markings on its legs and a marking in the form of a lyre on the upper surface of its thorax (chest region).
Seems the same as per shared picture.
Next Steps
If any signs or symptoms persists, than go for required investigations.
May take online individual consultation in case of fever, rashes on the body, bodyache etc.
