Encephalitis is a very common brain inflammation disease, which often causes certain damage to children's brain health. In order to reduce and avoid the occurrence of encephalitis, parents should pay enough attention to it. After discovering encephalitis, they should actively check and treat their children. So, what are the sequelae of pediatric encephalitis?
If a child develops encephalitis, the most common cause is due to viral infection, or it may be caused by bacterial infection or other reasons. This disease is generally more severe, but some children with mild symptoms may fully recover after treatment. However, pediatric encephalitis may also have sequelae, which often indicate a more serious condition and may result in motor and speech impairments, or residual sequelae such as seizures.
So if diagnosed with pediatric encephalitis, it is necessary to actively treat the cause and provide targeted treatment to prevent sequelae. If it is a viral infection, antiviral treatment is needed; if it is a fungal infection, antifungal treatment is needed; if it is caused by tuberculosis infection, anti tuberculosis treatment is needed. Through active treatment, patients' symptoms can be improved and the risk of developing sequelae can be reduced.
During the recovery period, it is important to pay attention to daily care for children, with a focus on light and easily digestible foods. It is also important to ensure that children wear appropriate clothing to prevent the occurrence of colds and other illnesses.
