Patient's question:
Today Dad called me and said she went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with chronic mesenteric lymphadenitis. Hello, is chronic mesenteric lymphadenitis serious?Doctor's answer:
Chronic mesenteric lymphadenitis is not too serious and is caused by long-term nausea, vomiting, or constipation, as well as gastrointestinal dysfunction. The lymphadenitis requires timely anti-inflammatory treatment. If there are no symptoms, treatment is not necessary. If there are obvious symptoms such as severe abdominal pain, fever, constipation, nausea, and vomiting, anti-inflammatory treatment is still required. Pay attention to maintaining a good lifestyle, and avoid eating extremely cold or hard foods.
