Patient's question:
The girl is two and a half years old. Initially, she had diarrhea and a fever of 38 degrees, which lasted for 3 days.Doctor's answer:
During the acute phase, bed rest should be maintained. Activities can be gradually increased once symptoms and signs improve and the electrocardiogram returns to normal. A nutrient-rich, easily digestible diet should be provided. In cases of heart failure, arrhythmia, or shock, active correction should be initiated. Antiviral drugs such as amantadine (200 mg daily) and guanidine (0.1 g, three times daily orally) can be administered. If bacterial infection is present, antibiotics should be given.
