Patient's question:
My daughter had stomach pain four days ago. She went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor performed an ultrasound and said it was mesenteric lymphitis. Blood and urine tests were also done. There was slightly some inflammation, but everything else was fine. Today, she has a fever and a slight cough, but her spirits are still okay. Her bowel movements are normal, and she is eating normally.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you: For cases of mesenteric lymphadenitis, it is caused by infectious exacerbation, often resulting from respiratory infections, which can lead to symptoms such as coughing and fever. If there is abdominal pain, it is recommended to use anti-inflammatory medication to help alleviate the inflammatory infection symptoms. It is advised to conduct a blood test, and if white blood cell counts are high, antibiotic treatment can be considered. Currently, the condition is not severe, so antibiotics should not be used blindly.
