Question
An 11-year-old girl developed dizziness symptoms three weeks ago, following an injury and a cold. She had undergone brain CT and EEG scans, which were normal. However, she was diagnosed with intracranial infection and was hospitalized for treatment. She recovered well during the National Day long holiday, but experienced dizziness again on the first afternoon of school after the holiday. What should the doctor do?
Answer
The girl’s dizziness could be a normal reaction during the recovery period from the illness, or it could be caused by other diseases or physical discomforts. It is recommended to undergo further checks to rule out other possible causes, and to ensure adequate rest and avoid overexertion. Additionally, adjusting lifestyle and dietary habits may help alleviate the symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly.
