What is the cause of Kawasaki disease?

Patient's question:

The day before yesterday, the child suddenly developed a low fever and a cough that was much worse than usual. We took them to the hospital for diagnosis overnight. The doctor said the child had Kawasaki disease. However, we have always been very careful with the child's diet, clothing, housing, and daily care, so we don't know why they developed Kawasaki disease. We would like to ask for advice on the causes of Kawasaki disease.

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking: Kawasaki disease has no money and no clear cause. Many patients have had acute upper respiratory infections in the early stages. The typical symptoms of Kawasaki disease include fever, conjunctival and conjunctival congestion, lymph node enlargement, etc. The treatment of Kawasaki disease mainly involves intravenous infusion of ice globulin and glucocorticoids, while symptomatic treatment is also implemented. During the recurrence of influenza or epidemics, prevent children from going to crowded places.
