Patient's question:
Hello, dear doctors,My child, who is 1 year and 8 months old, was admitted to the hospital with asthmatic bronchitis. Later, the doctors suspected myocarditis. How should I treat it? On January 2, 2012, at the 300 Hospital in Guiyang, an electrocardiogram was performed with a pulse rate of 110 beats per minute. The blood test showed creatine kinase MB isoenzyme at 47. After a 9-day hospital stay, the child was discharged. The doctor advised taking fructose for 6 days. Upon follow-up, the creatine kinase MB isoenzyme level was 26. I would like to ask the kind doctors whether it was myocarditis and how it should be treated. Are there any sequelae? The child is currently very well-behaved and energetic, showing no signs of illness.
Doctor's answer:
If you have myocarditis, you should enhance physical exercise, reduce the body's resistance to disease, and avoid overexertion to prevent viral or bacterial infections. After onset, pay attention to rest, consume a nutrient-rich diet to aid in the complete recovery of the heart. During the acute phase, bed rest is recommended. Gradually increase exercise only after symptoms and signs improve and the electrocardiogram returns to normal. If heart failure, arrhythmia, or shock reappears, take active measures to address these issues.This is advice regarding the question "Is this myocarditis?" I hope it helps. Wishing you good health!
