Question
The patient is a male with symptoms of fever, sore throat, abdominal distension, and abdominal pain. What is the disease category and cause? The duration of this illness and its persistence: The illness has been ongoing for 5 days. Current general condition: Good. Medical history: No previous diagnoses or treatment experiences. Diagnosis: Viral influenza. Anti-inflammatory and antipyretic medication can reduce fever, but it returns immediately after stopping the medication.
Answer
The child’s condition may be related to intestinal spasm or lymphadenitis. It is necessary to understand if the child’s stool is normal. If the stool is normal, it may be a transient case of intestinal spasm or lymphadenitis. Continuing anti-inflammatory treatment can alleviate symptoms and ultimately lead to recovery. It is recommended to go to the hospital for routine blood tests and a comprehensive examination to clarify the cause. If it is caused by bacterial infection, treatment with anti-infection measures is necessary; simply reducing fever is not effective.
