Question

A 1.5-year-old child has developed red spots on their back, and the test results show a viral infection. They have been treated for a week, and the doctor has prescribed antihistamines and moxifloxacin granules. The child is allergic to penicillin. Why did the child get this disease, and is the prescribed medication effective?

Answer

The child may have developed the skin condition due to a lack of calcium and vitamin B deficiency, leading to reduced skin resistance. It is recommended to supplement calcium and consume more vitamin B-rich foods such as whole grains and legumes to promote recovery. Antihistamines and moxifloxacin granules may help alleviate symptoms, but the most important aspect is to enhance skin resistance through nutritional supplementation.
