Patient's question:
The child in my neighbor's house, who is two years old, often appears pale and has poor appetite. Additionally, they experience recurrent high fever, with temperatures below 39 degrees Celsius. After searching online, I found that the symptoms are similar to those of leukemia. Hello doctor, what are the early symptoms of leukemia in infants?Doctor's answer:
Early symptoms of leukemia may reappear as persistent high fever, which is not alleviated by antipyretic and analgesic drugs. Subsequently, progressive worsening anemia symptoms may reappear, such as pale complexion, dry and yellowing hair, and significantly reduced exercise endurance. Skin peeling may also occur again, such as bleeding spots reappearing on the limbs. Even if these symptoms match, to diagnose leukemia, it is necessary to undergo bone marrow puncture examination at the hospital.
