In the case of pediatric mesenteric lymphadenitis, which often occurs in children under 7 years old, most of the time it is a viral infection, which makes the symptoms of the children more and more serious and causes many aspects of the impact. So what are the symptoms of mesenteric lymphadenitis? What kind of manifestations will the children have? Symptoms of mesenteric lymphadenitis 1. Diarrhea First, the patient will experience fatigue, diarrhea, sore throat, fever and vomiting. Younger children may present with the same clinical symptoms as appendicitis, but their condition is relatively mild, so it is necessary to consider whether it is acute mesenteric lymphadenitis, which often occurs concurrently with upper respiratory tract infections and intestinal infections. Second, patients will have sensitive tender areas during physical examination, and the tenderness will be close to the midline. 2. Abdominal pain For patients with mesenteric lymphadenitis, abdominal pain is one of the earliest symptoms. In addition, pain can occur in any part of the patient. However, because the lesion mainly affects a group of lymph nodes in the terminal ileum, the most common site is the right lower abdomen. The nature of the abdominal pain is not fixed, and it manifests as dull pain or spasmodic pain. The feeling will be very good in the interval between two pains. Abdominal pain is paroxysmal and spasmodic, and rebound pain is relatively rare.The cause of the disease is that the lymphatic drainage of the distal ileum is very rich, and there are many lymph nodes in the ileum and large intestine. After an upper respiratory tract infection or intestinal infection, viruses, bacteria and their toxins circulate through the blood to the lymph nodes in this area, causing mesenteric lymphadenitis. Virus-infected patients present with mesenteric lymph node hyperplasia, edema, and congestion, but culture is negative. Mesenteric lymphadenitis caused by Salmonella infection is different from viral lymphadenitis. The bacterially invaded lymph nodes often show acute inflammatory reactions, bleeding and necrosis in the lymph nodes, and Salmonella can be isolated in the lymph nodes. After reading the above, I believe everyone already knows the symptoms of mesenteric lymphadenitis. For patients with this disease, once diagnosed, conservative treatment is necessary. Patients can receive intravenous infusions or antibiotics for treatment, which can significantly improve their symptoms. |
