Inquiry

The main symptom is a high fever, with the onset on October 10, 2009, and the laboratory test results on October 11, 2009. Past treatment and effectiveness: Currently using Yabao Children’s Sensitivity Clearing Pill (3 pills each time, 3 times a day) and Xinyu Phosphorus Fungus Calcium Granules (one sixth of a packet each time, 3 times a day), but the efficacy feels unsatisfactory. When the fever exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, use Gihao Ibuprofen Suspension (2 milliliters each time), which is effective, but occasionally causes vomiting, with Bloodshot appearing in the vomit. Please inquire what type of infection is indicated by the blood routine report? Is it a rash, or a viral or bacterial infection? Please assist with medical judgment.

Answer

It is not possible to determine which bacteria the child is infected with from the blood routine report. For children of this age group, a higher lymphocyte ratio is a normal phenomenon. The currently used medications are ineffective against viral infections, and it is not recommended to use antibiotics. For fever symptoms, ibuprofen can effectively reduce fever but may cause recurrence. Regarding rashes, it may be measles or infantile rash, but based on the symptoms, it is judged to be infantile rash, as it is a viral infection and antibiotic treatment is ineffective. In summary, treatment should be symptomatic, and changes in the condition should be observed.
