How to treat cytomegalovirus infection

Patient's question:

The child has been in poor condition recently, with poor appetite and always feeling weak. We took her to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said it was a cytomegalovirus infection, but it is currently unclear whether it is congenital or acquired, and they asked us to understand and treat it as soon as possible. She is currently being treated in the hospital and taking medication.
What kind of assistance is needed: How to deal with the child's cytomegalovirus infection? Is it better to treat congenital or acquired?

Doctor's answer:

First, don't hurry, I'm also a parent of a child. In our family, we found out about this when the baby was two months old, and it developed like this. Going to the hospital and taking medicine for at least a week. Two courses, more than a month, it's usually like this. Of course, it's easier to treat if it's transmitted later, but there's no need to worry too much about congenital ones either. After treatment, regular follow-up tests are enough. The above is advice for the question "What to do about cytomegalovirus infection?" I hope it helps you, and wish you health!
