Question
How should pediatric wind-damp immune diseases be treated?
Answer
For children with wind-damp immune diseases, it is essential to ensure adequate rest and a diet that is easy to digest and rich in nutrition. In cases of heart failure, a low-salt diet should be adopted. For patients with severe rheumatic heart inflammation and heart dilation, heart failure may occur. In addition to using adrenal cortex hormones for treatment, digoxin or intravenous injection of digitoxin and rapid-acting diuretics such as Lasix may also be added for treatment. In daily life, attention should be paid to keeping warm, avoiding catching a cold or dampness.
