Question
What are the potential impacts of undergoing a bone marrow biopsy on a two-year-old child? Are there alternative treatment methods, such as medication or surgery? Are there better treatment options available?
Answer
Bone marrow biopsy is a common method in hematology clinical diagnosis and typically poses minimal risk. Although the name may sound concerning, it is actually not dangerous. For children, it is recommended to consider traditional Chinese medicine adjustment and treatment, and to avoid hormone use as much as possible to prevent any impact on their physical development. Specific treatment plans should be discussed with a doctor, and attention should be paid to the child’s physical condition in daily life, with a preference for light and healthy diets.
