Patient's question:

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the possibility of mesenteric lymphadenitis is high, which is common in children. It is recommended to take some antibiotics, such as Cefalexin, and pay attention to your diet by eating less hard-to-digest foods. Wait and see. Avoid cold and greasy foods, and maintain a light diet. The issue is not too serious, as most children will recover as they grow older.
Hello, before pregnancy, it is important to check the father's hepatitis B viral load. It is safer to get pregnant when the viral load is low.
Suggestions: The current action you can take is to immediately administer hepatitis B immune globulin and hepatitis B vaccine to the child after birth for passive immunity.
