Dezhou News Network (Reporter Tang Zhimei, Correspondent Sun Xing) “Thank you for curing the child’s disease. It turned out to be an allergy. No wonder the effect of treating a cold before is always bad.” On March 15, a parent of a child deliberately I went to the Pediatric Clinic of Dezhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital to express my thanks in person.
It is understood that the child had continuous cough and runny nose for nearly one and a half months, and the parents thought it was a cold. Although the symptoms were relieved after self-medication, it has not been cured, and the disease has recurred. Later, when the parent took the child to the Pediatrics Department of the Municipal Maternity and Child Health Hospital, the symptoms described caught the attention of the doctor who received it, Wang Xin, who suspected that the child’s symptoms were caused by allergies. Subsequent allergy test results also confirmed Wang Xin’s idea. The child is allergic to dust and dust mites, so he coughs every winter and spring, and the symptoms become more pronounced every year. After the cause was clarified, Wang Xin used a combination of drugs and desensitization therapy for treatment, and the symptoms such as cough of the child were relieved.
Wang Xin reminded that childhood is the golden period for desensitization treatment. Therefore, once a child is found to have allergic symptoms such as prolonged coughing, wheezing, unexplained runny nose, and eye rubbing, they should go to the hospital as soon as possible and receive professional treatment.
