Patient's question:
My child drank pesticide once when he was young and hasn't touched it since. After drinking it, he got really scared and threw it all up. We didn't induce vomiting. Will this affect his intelligence?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it is first necessary to clarify what type of pesticide the child has ingested. How long has the child been consuming it, and how much has been ingested? It is best to promptly take the child to the hospital for gastric lavage treatment. At the same time, it is necessary to monitor the patient's vital signs and assess the extent of liver and kidney damage. Considering the potential interference with the nervous system, it is recommended that you seek medical attention promptly for examination and testing.
