Recurrent high fever without fever
It is also accompanied by a sore throat......
Recently
Many children have been "recruited" one after another
Infected with adenovirus!
Zhuji Central Hospital of Zhejiang Province
More than 700 cases were treated in a month
High fever does not go away, poor mental state
Adenovirus infection is considered
Recently, in the pediatric outpatient clinic of Zhuji Central Hospital in Zhejiang Province, there are many parents and children who are waiting for treatment.
This year, 3-year-old Xiaoguo (pseudonym) not only has repeated high fevers, but also has a sore throat, red eyes, poor mental state, and poor appetite.
The worried parents brought their children to the hospital, and after examination, the doctor considered that he had an adenovirus infection and needed to be admitted to the hospital for observation.
After symptomatic treatment, Xiaoguo's body temperature had returned to normal on the third day.
Surge in patients
Some hospitals receive more than 700 people a month
Zhao Li, the attending physician of Zhuji Central Hospital, introduced that adenovirus, or human adenovirus, is a DNA virus without an envelope.
Infected children will have recurrent and frequent high fevers, usually above 39°C. The fever rises quickly after it subsides, and it lasts for about 1 week, and sometimes it is difficult to drop to a normal temperature even after taking antipyretics, and there are symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, sore throat, red eyes, and listlessness.
It is understood that in June this year, the pediatric department of Zhuji Central Hospital received more than 700 children with adenovirus infection, and more than 90 people were hospitalized due to complications caused by adenovirus infection. According to the doctor, "In previous years, the number of adenovirus infections in the pediatric department of the hospital was almost 100, but this year there has been a surge in patients. ”
How long does this fever last?
Is there any cure?
Adenovirus is mainly transmitted through respiratory droplets, followed by close contact and fecal-oral transmission, which is highly contagious and generally susceptible to the population.
Many parents will wonder: If the child's tonsils are suppurated, does he not need antibiotics?
In fact, both viral and bacterial infections can cause suppuration of the tonsils, and the principles of treatment for the two are completely different. Among them, the purulent color of the viral tonsils is whitish, like a layer of white membrane, and antibiotics should not be abused.
According to the doctor, adenovirus infection can generally heal on its own, and there is no specific drug at present, only symptomatic treatment is needed. Drugs other than fever-induced discomfort that require antipyretics, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen, are rarely needed, especially antibiotics.
If your child has similar symptoms
Go to the hospital in time
Do not blindly use antibiotic treatment
