Prompt treatment of cytomegalovirus in children goes a different way, not as an adult? Or are assigned the same drug, but at a dosage? There may be some response of an allergic reaction? And what to do in this case? It is also necessary to treat cytomegalovirus that no further problems.
Maybe I'm completely behind the times, but I can not understand where it came from the cytomegalovirus? Why is it so common or less of it simply did not know? I like, too, found it, however, did not say what to do. I heard that it can produce complications in the future, especially cytomegalovirus complications can give a child if he was sick it as fragile body. Just so scary!
As an expectant mother, very worried, as if my child is not picked up this infection. Its me if I'm not mistaken, there is, but just in case it is necessary to be properly surveyed. I read all the comments, still useful to know about the symptoms of CMV at the baby, so the time to take appropriate action.
Too bad cytomegalovirus contagious for children. Soon we go to kindergarten, and now I experience. But on the other hand - a lot of infections, and so, all of them with complications. The best way to strengthen the immune system and not to panic. And you know, on the principle of attraction can happen is what we think and what we fear.
I never know for sure and is not expected, as shown by the effects of cytomegalovirus infection in children after the disease. I like to learn that once they had been ill, but still do not know how or when, but I remember that at one time often caught a cold and acute respiratory infections is constantly "attacked." Cytomegalovirus tricky and dangerous for all age groups.
Elena, you're right. Treatment of cytomegalovirus in children is not really that difficult. We have the whole family cytomegalovirus, but in children it appears unobtrusively. Implement the recommendations of doctors and that is enough. Children with and I and my sister - all quite normal tolerate the presence of cytomegalovirus in childhood and we do not suffer much.
Here's how to treat cytomegalovirus during the child and, most importantly, if you cause when a pediatrician at the house, and the symptoms, it turns out, similar to the symptoms of SARS, a pediatrician, and begin to heal from the SARS ... And by the way, it is necessary to take blood from a vein or general analysis shows or even a special name for some there?
My son is 2 years and 10 months in our 1 year tsitomigalovirus found. That's almost 2 years, we are treated, no special results. Plus we also gidrotsifaliya. Please help me, tell me where it is better to take a child? Where to find a good specialist?
My child is found at the cytomegalovirus we zdaaali saliva testing and said the drug should be ordered in Germany and there is at least some hope of something or some sort of option to cure this disease but I am suffering.
Xenia you are right that a pediatrician begins to treat SARS. Because the symptoms are similar. I think the treatment is not very different from SARS. Here, for example in the treatment of cytomegalovirus in the child administered the antiviral drug, as with SARS. A routine blood test did not identify. It is necessary to pass from a vein, particularly for viruses in the blood. So Xenia, if you want to learn can do this analysis yourself, for a fee.
My kids 3, 5 and 7 years have found cytomegalovirus, and the analysis done with regard to the fact that all the autumn does not get out bolnichnyh.Ya in horror! At this point, both boleeyut, pediatrician referred to infectious diseases ... esteemed, crying, what to do ?!
I think nowadays virtually every child is a carrier of CMV. Because it is increasingly determined by expectant mothers. So he passed kiddies. Even if he is not active, but still there. And the treatment of cytomegalovirus in children, it seems to me is straightforward. Guzzle a course of antiviral drugs, that's all treatments.
A complication of cytomegalovirus in children is usually the case of a weak immune system, or if the child is very small, or if they have comorbidities. My friend has a child adolescent, a child with CMV were problems, but not to say that big, and now he relapses for several years there. As they say, bolzen gone age.
I think the treatment of cytomegalovirus infection in children takes place quite easily. For me, though it remains unclear the time of her show, for obvious signs, in most cases it does not have to determine is the virus is difficult, but what is also problematic to treat. I also found him, though dormant form and in adulthood.
Anya, you're right, there is no clear evidence. Therefore, you can identify taking a blood test. But such symptoms in the newborn cytomegalovirus can appear in the form of long passable jaundice. Child treat, cure. And he is still yellow, but when taking a blood sample, and often find CMV. And if it is not active, so why not treat it.
Fortunately, for the treatment of cytomegalovirus in infants has many antiviral drugs, the negative impact that a child is practically reduced to zero. Yet CMV therapy has its own characteristics, and success is entirely dependent on the timely diagnosis and treatment
It often happens that a child is a carrier of the virus, but it does not manifest itself, so parents and does not occur, you need to do a special analysis, that the child found cytomegalovirus. So do not worry so much, we should start to worry when the virus starts to show. And that did not happen, it is necessary to strengthen the immunity of the child in all possible ways.
How is the diagnosis of cytomegalovirus in an infant? Complete blood count done? What are the actions of doctors in case of detection of this virus? Is there a category of people that are most likely to be infected with CMV? And most importantly - how to treat the baby? Antibiotics are scared to give.
It turns out that the effects of cytomegalovirus in the child will be more difficult if it gets infected in utero, and if after the birth, the symptoms will be easier and the disease too. So, planning to become pregnant should be as competent and maybe even lie on the preservation and hospitalization in the clinic, to identify any changes in time. At this point the doctor says.
The fact that now a lot of different medications - this is true, but that's about the time of treatment with a small child, a newborn, it's hard. You do not know well what was wrong with him, and all processes in the body in children occur in another. What are the first symptoms of CMV in newborns? What you need to pay attention not to miss the disease?
Treatment of cytomegalovirus child has its own characteristics. The child has a disease alone does not pass, so antiviral treatment - a fundamental principle. But now there are drugs that are on the smallest calculated. Importantly, do not start the process until complications and treated in time.
I know what cytomegalovirus, read a lot about it, and I understand how dangerous cytomegalovirus in children. Moreover, increasing the likelihood of constant colds and other effects and complications can be- body still fragile! I myself have found antibodies to it and I'm mad I can not make how he got into my body!
The consequences of the child's birth at the cytomegalovirus can be very scary and dangerous. But let's face it. Genetics - a difficult thing with any pregnancy there is a risk that the child will be transferred either to genes or viruses with some kind of disease or just a random mutation may occur. The risk in all cases is usually not very large, so do not need to think, and to wind itself.
About CMV long ago I heard a lot, but even could not assume that the effects of cytomegalovirus in newborns can be so serious. Of course, many write that everything goes well. But it still is now afraid of pregnancy. I know that I have the virus in the blood. How will this affect my child, when I think is terrible. After all, it affects the central nervous system.
Wonder what cytomegalovirus in the body from childhood may be, perhaps, that the cases of congenital virus? I would like to know whether it can be transmitted from the mother at birth, if the mother's blood has antibodies and she once it suffered? In general, the whole thought, earlier - 20-30 years ago-you know about this diagnosis?
Even scary to think how dangerous cytomegalovirus for newborns, because immunity crumbs quite weak. I know that for cytomegalovirus have a tendency to colds and inflammatory zabolevaniyam- in this and the virus appears. It remains one hundred percent respect the rules of care for the baby and carefully protect it.
I do not know what m cytomegalovirus in children happens. At one time, I had not even heard of the disease, and then I found the antibodies in the blood to him, and by chance, even though doctors have not given importance. I do not understand, when I had been ill, and most importantly, how and where caught. In general, I wonder how it is spread and how many people who could not bear it?
How a lot of infections in the world, from which it is impossible in any way to protect the child. Even vaccination does not guarantee that a child will not get sick. Cytomegalovirus in children is quite common, but poorly to the diagnosis, because of this infection carries serious health consequences.
Treatment of cytomegalovirus child, I believe, difficult. But with a favorable outcome sure whether he will then carry the virus for life? Dispatched if he *** or by example from the father to his children? I would like to know more. What tests will give a more complete picture of the treatment of this disease?
And the symptoms of cytomegalovirus in a child are different from the symptoms of the disease in adults? A young child probably will manifest symptoms and is easier to treat. Medications for the treatment of cytomegalovirus for children and adults are very different, or only dose? The virus can re-emerge in a few years?
I believe that the cytomegalovirus early to diagnose, just at birth and then periodically check the children for this disease. So you can at least in the early stages to identify inactive cytomegalovirus or his condition. Well dangerously same time it is such a terrible disease, we should do something.
How likely manifestation of cytomegalovirus in children, if the mother is infected with it? I never once such a virus is detected, but I plan pregnancy. What should I do if I am infected with HIV? Is there some kind of therapy, the child is not infected? It may be advisable not to breastfeed? Very much it scared me.
Ponaslushalas cytomegalovirus stories about children, now I can not throw out of my head all this. Now I am in the position for six months, and so was scared, but would not pick up the virus. Like recently handed over the analysis, everything is clean. It is necessary to carefully monitor this, I never thought before that it so seriously!
Valentine did not get so nervous during pregnancy. Of course cytomegalovirus and development of the child - it is all interconnected. But you passed the tests and have found that does not. Why your head score. You protect yourself most importantly with my husband and then everything will be fine. For many it will be dangerous if you get *** by him. He did not hand over analyzes.
During the second pregnancy was discovered CMV, but said the fetus as does not affect. I walked the entire pregnancy quiet. This was not even thinking. And when the baby was born on the third day there was jaundice. Do not pass it we have up to three months. After the doctor said - the consequences of CMV in newborns. Interestingly it turns out during pregnancy, say not scary, and then there are consequences. Whom to believe?
I am your child to donate blood CMV. Itself the result is not seen, but the doctor said that we are not active cytomegalovirus in children. People had a lot to the reception, really that does not explain. So I really do not understand should be treated or not. As I understand it is in the blood, thus can become active? And how he takes all? Who knows prompt.
Inna if you are not an active CMV, then the symptoms will be. Well there you have it in the blood, it is from him or wherever you go. In general, the symptoms of cytomegalovirus in a child in this form does not show. And if there is such as frequent fatigue, aches all over the body, may even be the temperature. That will need to be tested again. All of the symptoms described above, read it carefully.
If you're not pregnant, are now hand over repeated tests for infection. In any lab can take just one blood sample. I understand that the newborn can detect cytomegalovirus, if it was my mother, that is, the risk of infection is - through the placenta, blood. But in general, taking into account how it is transmitted quickly, probably, every third is its carrier, unfortunately.
I know that I was once about five years ago was found in the blood test antibodies to cytomegalovirus, did not understand the truth by mistake or ill. I would like to know there is great probability that the virus is transmitted to the baby during pregnancy? Will the child cytomegalovirus if they hurt when something Mom or perhaps he did not hit him in the body?
Eugene, deeply sorry that you've had cytomegalovirus, and also so as not to hang you lopshu on the ears to be honest, did your child have the opportunity to also they have been ill, but there is also the possibility that he is not in it, then so to say never you can not be sure of a hundred that's what prosledstviya protsentov.a cytomegalovirus has on child development is necessary to know your doctor.
Eugene if there are no symptoms, probably not so much matter whether the virus cytomegalovirus in children or not. Of course you can take a blood test that would know exactly. But I do not see sense. I still do not from my mother, so will pick up in kindergarten. Unless the child is frequently ill, hand over without hesitation. Propёte course of antiviral and everything will be fine.

What a terrible infection. and most importantly, how easy it is transmitted. Indeed, in the garden and children coughing and mouth take one and same toys. How to tell if my child has cytomegalovirus? After Sadikova children get sick regularly, especially younger children. Donating blood each time? But the pediatrician does not direct us during colds in the blood. Nnado tempered child.
Valya cytomegalovirus viral infection in children often begins with kindergarten. But do not worry so much about it. If you care about it so much, hand over your child analysis. And all know, maybe you have it in an inactive form. Unless a child is prone to frequent colds, then you need to spend on drugs. Do not worry, seek medical attention.
On the third day after the birth of my son appeared jaundice. We prescribed pills and told each month donated blood from a vein in the analysis (bilirubin, and alkaline phosphatase). Bilirubin decreased, but very slowly. Then the doctor told us to be tested for the presence of CMV in the child. From the result of the analysis revealed that antibodies to CMV in the blood of a child is, but these antibodies handed him to me when he was still in the womb. I was assured that there was nothing wrong with that, and no negative consequences for the child will not be. After reading this article, I doubted whether all so I'm told?
Yes, it's bad news. Worst of all newborns with CMV infection - because they have nothing to say where it hurts and how. It's good that you do, he was born healthy with the infection. And in general, is now closely monitor the health of the baby and find a good doctor and consult with him.
Aurora seems to me you should not be cause for panic. Such symptoms of cytomegalovirus in children as you frequent. Typically, this is manifested in the form of neonatal jaundice. The risk exists only if you are infected during pregnancy in the first. And if you already have CMV was - it is not scary. I know from my experience.
I have a growing baby is now scared to give to the garden. Have children taking in the garden, take blood for infections? No! And the consequences of cytomegalovirus in children is very scary. Here's how to protect the child, if the virus is transmitted by airborne droplets? wash hands and dishes - it's good, but maybe not enough. Nightmare shorter.
I would like to cite the example of a deplorable case. My friend's child was infected with CMV while still in the womb. The consequences were disastrous. She even during pregnancy, said that the child will be born with hydrocephalus. And she hoped for a miracle, and suddenly made a mistake.
