Patient's question:
The child was admitted to the hospital from January 30 to February 3, 2003, due to upper respiratory infection and high fever with convulsions (first time). During the hospital stay, a normal cranial CT scan was performed. After discharge, the child experienced headaches before going to sleep and would ask parents to press their forehead with fingers, usually falling asleep within less than one minute. Sometimes, when waking up at night, the child also complained of headaches. After discharge, the child had two episodes of upper respiratory infection but was not admitted again. The symptoms were controlled with medication and injections. During the upper respiratory infection, the headaches worsened.Electroencephalogram (EEG) results showed 7-8C/S, 30-90UV, a rhythm. There were mild, intermittent, 4-5C/S high-amplitude UV waves in the occipital region, with generally normal regulation. Diagnosis: focal mild abnormality. X-ray imaging of the paranasal sinuses (K?nig's view) showed normal findings.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, your condition is considered a cold. In the early stages, you can use Shuanghuanglian or Banlangen for treatment. When there are obvious coryza symptoms such as a runny nose, you can take cold medicine like Compound Aminophenbutazone Granules for treatment, while also taking anti-inflammatory medication. Drinking plenty of water is beneficial for relieving sore throat. If it does not improve over the long term, antibiotics may be needed for treatment.There are many reasons that can cause respiratory issues in children. If a child is diagnosed with a respiratory condition, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for timely treatment, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
