"Our child has been coughing for several days and has been calling chest pain, can you prescribe some atomizing medicine or cough syrup?" Recently, Xiao Nan (pseudonym) grandmother anxiously took her child to Chao News Qianbao Health Station and the Department of Pediatrics of Pengbu Street Community Health Service Center in Shangcheng District, Hangzhou.
After receiving the consultation, Dr. Wang Kai learned that 5-year-old Xiao Nan had a fever of 39.5°C for three consecutive days, and his parents thought it was a common flu, so he used fever-reducing drugs on his own.
After the doctor's examination, it was found that Xiaonan's tonsils were red and swollen, there were crackles in the lungs, the blood picture of the blood routine test was not high, and the CT showed that the lungs had a large patchy density increase shadow, which was most likely pneumonia.
Considering that the child's disease course was long and his sleep was extremely poor at night, Dr. Wang Kai immediately suggested that the patient's family go to a higher-level hospital for hospitalization, and after the consent of the patient's family, Dr. Wang Kai was referred through the medical alliance and through the "cloud hospitalization" green channel, so that Xiaonan was successfully admitted to the hospital. After corresponding treatment, the child is recovering well and will be discharged from the hospital.
Fever, cough, fatigue, body temperature up to 40 ° C... There are really many child patients like Xiao Nan recently.
According to Chao News reporters, the number of children with fever and cough received by the pediatric department of the Pengbu Street Community Health Service Center has increased significantly. Influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, Mycoplasma pneumoniae are menacing, how to protect the children's respiratory "line of defense" under the "bombing" in turns?
"Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a special pathogen, mainly transmitted through the respiratory tract, which is very similar to the common cold in the early stage and is easy to misdiagnose." Dr. Wang Kai introduced that if parents find that their children have a persistent high fever, they should seek medical attention in time, and at the same time carry out chest x-ray, lung CT and other related examinations to avoid delaying the condition, but also should focus on the child's mental state, if there is frequent irritability, crying or lethargy, obvious decrease in appetite, crying at night, poor sleep quality, etc., it must be paid attention to.
These months are the high season of pneumonia, pediatricians recommend: drink more water, exercise more, eat more vegetables and fruits, eat less spicy and greasy, indoor ventilation, but also be careful of cold. If the situation is more serious and there is a certain contagious pneumonia, try to rest at home and do not go to public places with many people.
