Question
The child has been very unruly lately, crying and fussing constantly, and has also developed symptoms of lymphadenitis with recurring fever. I’m not sure how to handle this.
Answer
Many children have the condition of mesenteric lymphadenitis, which can be diagnosed through color Doppler ultrasound. During the acute phase, anti-infection treatment should be provided, along with symptomatic anti-inflammatory and analgesic medications. Consider using Huoxiang Decoction. In everyday life, precautions should be taken to prevent colds. If there are signs of upper respiratory tract infection, antiviral and anti-infection treatments should be initiated immediately. Additionally, it is advisable to avoid consuming cold and spicy foods.
