Patient's question:
My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has appeared with this series of conditions, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child will become worse. What are the main symptoms of PKU children?Doctor's answer:
The main symptoms of the child are: intellectual disability, epilepsy, urine odor, yellow hair, and difficulty with movement coordination. Therefore, these children need to use special foods to reduce blood phenylalanine levels and prevent damage to the nervous system. In terms of diet, it is best to avoid consuming foods high in protein. The child is threatened by neonatal diseases, so the mother must take the child to seek immediate medical treatment to avoid using blind medication to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it is important to closely monitor changes in the child's symptoms and do everything possible to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
