Patient's question:
Girl, 10 years old, unable to stand due to weakness in both lower legs during the onset of symptoms, rapid heartbeat, slightly feverish (38.2°C), conscious, no sweating. These symptoms lasted for 1-2 hours. This is the second time this has happened this year. After the symptoms subsided, the child was in good condition. On the third day, the child felt slightly dizzy and had poor appetite. Echocardiogram was normal, blood sugar was not low, and potassium levels were not deficient. What aspects should the doctor consider next?Doctor's answer:
Please pay attention to checking for any neurological issues. If necessary, you can have a brain CT, ECG, and EEG. Check a complete blood count to see if there are any abnormalities. Let's wait and see for now and observe carefully. If this condition reoccurs, further examinations will be needed. The above advice is for the question "A 10-year-old girl develops weakness in both lower legs, how should I take her for treatment?" I hope it helps you.
