Question

My child recently suffered from acute mesenteric lymphadenitis and was hospitalized. I would like to ask if recurrent attacks of acute mesenteric lymphadenitis are likely to turn into chronic? The child was not diagnosed with this disease during the first instance, and after being treated as a stomachache, recovered spontaneously after about 10 days. Is it serious if it was not treated the first time? How can this disease be prevented?

If appropriate treatment and preventive measures are taken in a timely manner, most cases can avoid recurrent attacks and transformation into chronic diseases. However, if the condition is not treated or treated improperly, it may lead to exacerbation of the condition or the occurrence of complications.
