Patient's question:
Children have diarrhea and vomiting, and their body temperature continues to rise. There are no spots on their bodies. They have been vaccinated for measles! What are these symptoms? Thank you for your reply!! Urgent!!!!!!!!!!Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be a common respiratory illness caused by multiple viruses, with 30% to 50% of cases being caused by a certain serotype of rhinovirus. While the common cold is most prevalent in early winter, it can also occur in any season, such as spring or summer, and the pathogens causing colds in different seasons are not entirely the same. Influenza is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza viruses. The virus exists in the respiratory tract of infected individuals and spreads to others through droplets when they cough or sneeze. The symptoms of influenza are similar to those of wind-heat cold, but the symptoms of seasonal influenza are generally more severe. Patients may experience sudden chills, high fever, headache, aversion to cold, shivering, severe headache, muscle aches, fatigue, nasal congestion, runny nose, dry cough, chest pain, nausea, and poor appetite. Infants, young children, or the elderly may develop complications such as pneumonia or heart failure. Treatment should focus on clearing heat, detoxifying, and dispersing wind to expel pathogens. Over-the-counter medications such as Xiangxue Antiviral Oral Liquid, Fangfeng Tongsheng Pills, Chonggan Ling Tablets, and Chonggan Tablets can be used. However, if seasonal influenza patients are treated solely with Yinqiao Jiedu Pills, Qilin Yinqiao Tablets, Xia Sang Ju Cold Tablets, or Niuhuang Jiedu Pills, the efficacy may be poor.Toxic influenza patients may exhibit symptoms such as high fever, delirium, coma, and convulsions, which can sometimes be fatal. Due to the highly contagious nature of this disease, early isolation and treatment are essential.
In summary, patients with colds should choose different traditional Chinese medicine treatments based on their specific symptoms to ensure optimal efficacy and avoid delaying the condition. It is recommended to visit a relevant hospital for examination and follow the guidance of a doctor for diagnosis, treatment, and medication. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
