Patient's question:
The child was recently hospitalized for acute mesenteric lymphadenitis. I would like to ask everyone if recurrent acute mesenteric lymphadenitis can easily turn into chronic? When the child first got this disease, it was not detected, and it was treated as a stomach problem. It healed on its own in about 10 days. Is it a big deal that it wasn't treated the first time? How can this disease be prevented?Doctor's answer:
Hello. Based on your description of this situation, you are currently mainly experiencing inflammation of the mesenteric lymph nodes. The main factor is congenital factors, which form this small phenomenon. It could also be caused by intestinal dysfunction or inflammation infection. My suggestion is to pay attention to local cleanliness and hygiene, avoid eating foods, and appropriately use surgery or anti-inflammatory drugs like cephalexin for regulation, which can all provide some relief.
