Patient's question:
I have been experiencing frequent dizziness and a poor appetite recently, and my mental state isn't great either. A hospital check-up revealed a blood-related issue. Could you please advise what medication to take if my anti-hemolysin O is high?Doctor's answer:
High levels of anti-hemolysin O may indicate an infection with Streptococcus. If it is an acute infection phase with a persistent decline, penicillin-class antibiotics can be used for anti-inflammatory treatment. Generally, recovery can be achieved after a period of treatment. It is recommended to conduct dynamic re-examinations, pay attention to cold exposure, prevent colds, avoid easily allergenic foods such as fish, shrimp, and mushrooms in diet, and get plenty of rest and drink more water.
