Kawasaki disease in children is a common acute disease, characterized by skin redness, swelling, and fever. People often treat Kawasaki disease in children as a rash. In fact, the essence of Kawasaki disease in children is vasculitis, not a skin disease. So how long can Kawasaki disease in children be cured?
The first symptoms of Kawasaki disease in children are loss of appetite, fever, and usually skin redness and swelling, with large areas of small red bumps appearing three to five days after onset. At this time, the body temperature also reaches its peak, usually burning to around 38.5 degrees Celsius. As the body temperature gradually decreases, skin problems also begin to disappear. The onset and treatment period of Kawasaki disease generally lasts about half a month. It also takes at least a week.
The most common stage of Kawasaki disease in children is in infants aged three to five, and the probability of male infants being affected is generally higher than that of female infants. The cause of Kawasaki disease is not yet very certain, it is only known that Kawasaki disease is related to bacterial transmission, but the specific cause of the disease has not been determined in the medical community.
Children with Kawasaki disease should pay attention to their diet during treatment, try to eat more light foods, especially vegetables and fruits; It is best not to take medication continuously for more than five days. Medication can have significant side effects on children's bodies, and some children do not need medication and can self heal.
