Question
“What kind of diseases can be treated in pediatric surgery? What symptoms fall under pediatric internal medicine? Is a second heartbeat a sign of heart disease?”
Answer
“A second heartbeat is not a sign of heart disease; it refers to the normal two beats of the heart. Pediatric surgery mainly handles surgical diseases of the abdomen, chest, urinary system, and reproductive system in newborns and children, including congenital malformations, tumors, and injuries. Pediatric internal medicine deals with diseases related to the cardiovascular, hematological, immune, and endocrine systems.”
