Question

A few days ago, the child experienced dry heaves again, had diarrhea once, felt sore and weak all over, and now the dry heaves have stopped, but the lower legs are still sore and weak, making it difficult to walk normally. Previous treatment and effects: One injection of Azithromycin and Yanhuang Ning, two injections of Da Da Phospholysin and Yanhuang Ning. Seeking assistance: What could be the true cause of the sore and weak lower legs? Could it be due to pest infestation? Thank you!

Answer

The baby experienced dry heaves, nausea, and vomiting again, possibly due to gastrointestinal infection. The lower legs feeling particularly soft might indicate a recurrence of hypokalemia or acute benign myositis. Guidance: It is necessary to carefully check electrolytes and consider potassium supplementation for the baby if necessary. Also, carefully check creatine kinase to determine if there is a recurrence of acute benign myositis, and consider anti-infection treatment if necessary.
