The child suffers from this rheumatic disease, of course, it is easy to lead to heart valve lesions, which is known as rheumatic heart disease. During the acute phase, the pericardium is most likely to develop a small amount of effusion. If it is severe and causes irreversible damage, surgical treatment needs to be performed. Early detection and early treatment of the disease are essential. During the acute phase, it is necessary to cooperate with the doctor to determine the sensitive antibiotics for anti-inflammatory treatment under the guidance of a doctor, and symptomatic treatment should also be carried out.
