Question
How should pediatric anemia be treated? Is it necessary to go to the hospital for treatment? How long will it take to see improvement after treatment?
Answer
The treatment for pediatric anemia is determined based on the levels of hemoglobin and red blood cells in the peripheral blood, categorizing anemia into mild, moderate, severe, and extremely severe degrees. Depending on the cause, anemia can be classified into three types: hemorrhagic, hemolytic, and insufficient production. It is recommended to provide the results of the examination for analysis and determination of the treatment plan. In daily diet, it is advisable to consume iron-rich foods such as animal liver, blood products, red dates, and longans, which can help supplement nutrition.
