Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I often take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Is it Kawasaki disease?Doctor's answer:
The child has a fever lasting more than 5 days, with rashes during the fever. If accompanied by swollen cervical lymph nodes, a pointed tip of the tongue, and a blood test indicating elevated platelets, Kawasaki disease should be considered. Based on your medical history, the likelihood of the child having Kawasaki disease is high. It is necessary to use human plasma immunoglobulin, anti-inflammatory treatment, and oral aspirin combined with dipyridamole for fever reduction. At the same time, dynamic monitoring of data through echocardiography is required to guard against coronary inflammation. Monitor the changes in platelet levels and FDP.
