How long does mesenteric lymphadenitis take to heal?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been in a lot of pain because I have mesenteric lymphadenitis. I've been hospitalized for several weeks now, and I want to ask how long it takes to recover from mesenteric lymphadenitis? I still need to go to work, and I don't know what to do. Can I stop being hospitalized and just take medication instead?

Doctor's answer:

The condition of the patient's mesenteric lymphadenitis may be caused by microbial infections such as bacteria and viruses. Due to differences in individual constitution and illness, the specific recovery time cannot be confirmed. It may be related to the patient's relatively poor resistance, triggered by factors such as improper diet and catching a cold. The specific situation requires consultation with the attending physician based on the patient's blood test results, abdominal ultrasound, and other examination findings. Rest during the day, maintain a light and regular diet, avoid catching a cold, and refrain from smoking and drinking alcohol.
