Question

A 9-year-old boy has poor language skills and inattention. An MRI shows a “long T2 signal in the right maxillary sinus,” with all other results normal. What does this mean?

Answer

This condition is considered to be a possible case of sinusitis. It is recommended to undergo a CT scan to assist in diagnosis. For treatment, nasal health tablets or Qian Bai Nasal Tablets can be used, and surgery may be considered if necessary. After surgery, it is important to rest and maintain nutrition, and avoid eating spicy or irritating foods. Timely and accurate treatment for pediatric neurological diseases is crucial; otherwise, the condition may progress rapidly and cause significant harm to the child. Parents should pay close attention to their child’s condition and seek medical attention early on.
