Patient's question:
The child next door was just born over a month ago, and his parents noticed that his eyes sometimes flip up and he also exhibits staring behavior. It's quite concerning. In recent days, I've seen that his parents have lost quite a bit of weight.Doctor's answer:
Hello: The upward rolling and staring of a newborn's eyes is a relatively serious symptom of a disease and should be sent to the pediatric department of the hospital immediately for emergency treatment. If the delay is too long, the brain will suffer from hypoxia, leading to damage to brain cells. The child is affected by galactosemia, so the mother must take the child to the hospital for timely medical treatment and avoid blindly using small advertisements for drugs. Rational medication is necessary. For parents, it is essential to provide the child with enough care and attention and to do everything possible to help the child receive timely medical treatment for the disease.
