Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling discomfort in my heart. Although I take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. I'm asking, what should I do if I have a cold and cough during the recovery period of Kawasaki disease?Doctor's answer:
Kawasaki disease is a vasculitic disease with an unclear etiology. The main clinical diagnostic symptoms include fever, skin and mucosal congestion, and lymph node atrophy. After active treatment, the prognosis for most children is generally favorable. During the recovery period of the disease, symptoms of cold and cough may reappear. Symptomatic treatment should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor. Generally, colds will not affect the complete recovery from Kawasaki disease.
